31e95f0d1dd4ca08feba9b081a356527bd4b45e6 markd Sat Sep 26 20:36:20 2026 -0700 Drop the hand-built Files column from the TSS faceted tables. refs #35528 UCSC will generate the download links in the faceted table, so the Files column each composite built for itself is redundant. Remove downloadCell, the Files header and cell, the Files entry in subtrackUrls, and the DOWNLOAD constant that only fed them. The table is now Tissue, Sample class, Experiment, Cell line on all three composites. writeMetadata no longer needs db or track; the metadata files it writes are byte-identical. Lead each Data Access section with the link to the hgdownload directory, since that is now the way to a single file, and keep the naming convention beside it. Drop the paragraph describing the Files column. diff --git src/hg/makeDb/trackDb/human/encode4ProCap.html src/hg/makeDb/trackDb/human/encode4ProCap.html index 91a78676c91..1a5f1b8a93c 100644 --- src/hg/makeDb/trackDb/human/encode4ProCap.html +++ src/hg/makeDb/trackDb/human/encode4ProCap.html @@ -66,58 +66,56 @@ and ENCSR799DGV for A673, Caco-2, Calu3, HUVEC, K562 and MCF10A respectively. </p> <p> The steps are recorded in <a href="https://github.com/ucscGenomeBrowser/kent/blob/master/src/hg/makeDb/doc/hg38/transcriptionStart.txt" target="_blank">doc/hg38/transcriptionStart.txt</a> and the scripts are in <a href="https://github.com/ucscGenomeBrowser/kent/tree/master/src/hg/makeDb/outside/proCapNet" target="_blank">makeDb/outside/proCapNet</a>, including <tt>proCapNetEncodeFiles.tsv</tt>, which records exactly which ENCODE file accessions went into each track. </p> <h2>Data Access</h2> +<p> +The bigWig files are on our +<a href="http://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/gbdb/hg38/encode4ProCap/" target="_blank">download +server</a>, 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>. +</p> + <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.
