Three subtracks: the 458 regions whose methylation follows the parent of origin, the 72 known control regions with the boundaries the paper redrew, and the pool of 385,235 regions carrying two methylation states that those came out of. A fourth set, the regions whose methylation follows a nearby SNP, is built by the scripts but its stanza is commented out, since sequence driven methylation is not imprinting. The authors released hg19 only, so all three are lifted. Their published files are close to bare BED, so the SNPs, cell types, p-values, gene links and gamete methylation on the details pages are read out of the paper's supplementary tables and joined on by position. Regions that lift but change length by more than 10%, because hg38 added sequence inside them, are kept with a note rather than dropped: one of them is TCEB3C, the only control region on chr18. Also across the collection: - long labels name their source right after "Imprinting", so that a label read on its own says where the data came from - the two gene catalogs are worded alike, and ordered OMIM, Geneimprint, MethBase2, Akbari, ASM Atlas - the OMIM curators confirmed that their (I) marker covers established and candidate imprinted genes alike, with nothing in the export to tell them apart. Labels, description page and makeDoc now say so, and the claim that the set is "more conservative" than the computational tracks is gone. The bigBed was rebuilt for the autoSql line, same 459 features. - every subtrack page opens by naming the collection, linked back to its hgTrackUi page, and no longer repeats the collection page's introduction to imprinting refs #37599 diff --git src/hg/makeDb/scripts/imprinting/kaplanAsm.as src/hg/makeDb/scripts/imprinting/kaplanAsm.as new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..d375eedfd87 --- /dev/null +++ src/hg/makeDb/scripts/imprinting/kaplanAsm.as @@ -0,0 +1,20 @@ +table kaplanAsm +"Bimodal regions where the methylation state follows a nearby heterozygous SNP (Rosenski et al. 2025)" + ( + string chrom; "Reference sequence chromosome or scaffold" + uint chromStart; "Start position in chromosome" + uint chromEnd; "End position in chromosome" + string name; "The ASM SNP, or the number of ASM SNPs in the region" + uint score; "Not used, always 0" + char[1] strand; "Not applicable, always ." + uint thickStart; "Start of where display should be thick" + uint thickEnd; "End of where display should be thick" + uint itemRgb; "Colour, the same for every region" + lstring snps; "ASM SNPs|dbSNP identifiers of the heterozygous SNPs whose genotype tracks the methylation state" + uint snpCount; "SNP count|number of ASM SNPs in the region" + lstring alleles; "Alleles|the two alleles of each ASM SNP" + lstring cellTypes; "Cell types|cell types in which the association was seen" + uint cellTypeCount; "Cell type count|number of cell types supporting the association" + string minAdjP; "Best adjusted p|smallest adjusted p-value over the SNPs and cell types of the region" + string liftNote; "Lifting note|set when hg38 inserted sequence inside the region, so that its boundaries no longer match the published hg19 ones" + )
