A promoter or an enhancer does not use a single start site: polymerase initiates across a spread of nearby bases, on both strands, and which bases are used is set largely by the local DNA sequence. PRO-cap is a nascent RNA run-on assay that captures the 5' end of each new transcript, so each read reports the exact base and strand of one initiation event. Unlike RNA-seq or CAGE, PRO-cap sees unstable RNAs as well as stable ones, which makes initiation at enhancers visible. </p> <p> This track shows PRO-cap signal from six ENCODE 4 experiments, one per cell line, on GRCh38/hg38 only. The predictions a deep learning model makes from sequence alone, trained on this same data, are in the ProCapNet track, available on GRCh38/hg38 and T2T-CHM13/hs1. </p> <h2>Display Conventions and Configuration</h2> <p> -Cell lines are listed in the table on this page, one row each.

Use the <b>Sample +class</b> facet to narrow the list, and the <b>Experiment</b> column to open the experiment on the ENCODE portal. </p> <p> Each track is an overlay of the two strands: plus strand reads are drawn upward and minus strand reads downward. The y axis is the number of initiation events measured at that base, summed over the experiment's replicates, so tracks with deeper sequencing reach higher values.

Biotinylated RNAs are captured on streptavidin beads, selected for a 5' cap so that only transcripts still carrying their original start are kept, then reverse transcribed and paired-end sequenced. The 5' end of the second read marks the base at which transcription started, and the read's strand gives the strand of initiation. The six experiments here were produced by the Yu and Lis labs at Cornell University and processed through the ENCODE PRO-cap pipeline, which maps reads, removes PCR duplicates using unique molecular identifiers, and writes single-base plus and minus strand signal for the uniquely mapping reads. These experiments are part of the ENCODE 4 nascent transcriptome survey described in -Shah <em>et al</em>. +Shah <em>et al.</em>, 2026. </p> <p> The signal files were downloaded from the <a href="https://www.encodeproject.org" target="_blank">ENCODE portal</a>, taking for each experiment only the plus and minus strand signal of unique reads files belonging to that experiment's default analysis, which drops files superseded by a later reprocessing. The experiments are ENCSR046BCI, ENCSR100LIJ, ENCSR935RNW, ENCSR098LLB, ENCSR261KBX and ENCSR799DGV for A673, Caco-2, Calu3, HUVEC, K562 and MCF10A respectively, and are linked from the Experiment column of the table on this page. ENCODE releases PRO-cap signal per replicate and, for MCF10A, per sequencing run, and publishes no pooled file, so the files were summed at UCSC to give one track per cell line per strand: two files for A673, Caco-2, Calu3 and K562, one for HUVEC, which has a single released replicate, and four for MCF10A. This is the same merge the ProCapNet models were trained on. Minus strand signal is negative as released by ENCODE and is kept that way. Total signal is conserved exactly by the summing. The steps are recorded in the <a href="https://github.com/ucscGenomeBrowser/kent/blob/master/src/hg/makeDb/doc/hg38/transcriptionStart.txt" target="_blank">makeDoc</a> and the scripts are in <a href="https://github.com/ucscGenomeBrowser/kent/tree/master/src/hg/makeDb/outside/proCapNet" target="_blank">the kent source tree</a>, including <tt>proCapNetEncodeFiles.tsv</tt>, which records exactly which ENCODE file accessions went into each track. </p> <h2>Data Access</h2> <p> The data can be explored interactively in table format with the <a href="../cgi-bin/hgTables">Table Browser</a> or the <a href="../cgi-bin/hgIntegrator">Data Integrator</a> and exported from there to spreadsheet or tab-sep tables. From scripts, the data can be accessed through our <a href="https://api.genome.ucsc.edu" target="_blank">API</a>. The API returns one bigWig at a time, so name a single strand of one cell line rather than the container, for example track=<i>encode4ProCap_K562_procap_pos</i>. </p> <p> The Files column of the table on this page links each cell line's bigWigs directly, so a single file can be fetched without working out its path. </p> <p> For automated download and analysis, the genome annotation is stored in bigWig files that can be downloaded from <a href="http://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/gbdb/hg38/encode4ProCap/" target="_blank">our download server</a>. The files are named for the cell line, the ENCODE experiment accession and the strand, for example <tt>K562.ENCSR261KBX.pos.bw</tt> and <tt>K562.ENCSR261KBX.neg.bw</tt>.
