Data Access

The data can be explored interactively with the Table Browser or the Data Integrator. The data can be accessed from scripts through our API, the track name is "denisovan" and "neanderthal".

For automated download and analysis, the genome annotation is stored in a tabix-indexed VCF file that can be downloaded from our download server. The files for this track are called denisovan.hg38.filt.vcf.gz and neanderthal.hg38.filt.vcf.gz. Various command line tools exist for working with VCF files. Users without command line experience can use the Galaxy website, by exporting the data directly from our table browser to Galaxy.
