This track shows locations of Sequence Tagged Sites (STS) \ along the mouse draft assembly. These markers have been mapped using \ either genetic mapping (WICGR Mouse Genetic Map, MGD Genetic Map) or radiation hybridization mapping (Whitehead/MRC RH Map) techniques.
\ \ Additional data on the individual maps can be found at the following links:\ \ \By default all genetic map markers are shown as blue; only radiation \ hybrid markers and markers that are neither genetic nor radiation hybrid \ are shown as black; markers that map to more than one position are \ shown in lighter colors. Users can choose a color to highlight a subset \ of markers of interest from the Filter options in STS Markers \ Track Setting page.\ \
Positions of STS markers are determined using both full sequences\ and primer information. Full sequences are aligned using blat,\ while ePCR is used to find locations using primer information.\ \
The track filter can be used to change the color or include/exclude\ a set of map data within the track. This is helpful when many items\ are shown in the track display, especially when only some are relevant\ to the current task. To use the filter:\

\ This track shows the draft assembly of the $organism genome. \ Whole-genome shotgun reads were assembled into contigs. When possible, \ contigs were grouped into scaffolds (also known as "supercontigs").\ The order, orientation and gap sizes between contigs within a scaffold are\ based on paired-end read evidence.
\\ In dense mode, this track depicts the contigs that make up the \ currently viewed scaffold. \ Contig boundaries are distinguished by the use of alternating gold and brown \ coloration. Where gaps\ exist between contigs, spaces are shown between the gold and brown\ blocks. The relative order and orientation of the contigs\ within a scaffold is always known; therefore, a line is drawn in the graphical\ display to bridge the blocks.
\\ All components within this track are of fragment type "W": \ Whole Genome Shotgun contig.

\This assembly contains the following principal types of gaps:\
\ Bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) are a key part of many large\ scale sequencing projects. A BAC typically consists of 25 - 350 kb of\ DNA. During the early phase of a sequencing project, it is common\ to sequence a single read (approximately 500 bases) off each end of\ a large number of BACs. Later on in the project, these BAC end reads\ can be mapped to the genome sequence.
\\ This track shows these mappings\ in cases where both ends could be mapped. These BAC end pairs can\ be useful for validating the assembly over relatively long ranges. In some\ cases, the BACs are useful biological reagents. This track can also be\ used for determining which BAC contains a given gene, useful information\ for certain wet lab experiments.
\\ A valid pair of BAC end sequences must be\ at least 25 kb but no more than 350 kb away from each other. \ The orientation of the first BAC end sequence must be "+" and\ the orientation of the second BAC end sequence must be "-".
\\ The scoring scheme used for this annotation assigns 1000 to an alignment \ when the BAC end pair aligns to only one location in the genome (after \ filtering). When a BAC end pair or clone aligns to multiple locations, the \ score is calculated as 1500/(number of alignments).
\ \\ BAC end sequences are placed on the assembled sequence using\ Jim Kent's blat program.
\ \\ Additional information about the clone, including how it\ can be obtained, may be found at the \ NCBI Clone Registry. To view the registry entry for a \ specific clone, open the details page for the clone and click on its name at \ the top of the page.

When a \ single mRNA aligned in multiple places, only alignments having at least 98% \ base identity with the genomic sequence were kept. This set of mRNA \ alignments was further reduced by keeping only those mRNAs referenced by a \ protein in SWISS-PROT, TrEMBL, or TrEMBL-NEW.
\\ Among multiple mRNAs referenced by a single protein, the best mRNA was \ selected, based on a quality score derived from its length, the level of the\ match between its translation and the protein sequence, and its release date.\ The resulting mRNA and protein pairs were further filtered by removing \ short invalid entries and consolidating entries with identical CDS regions.\
\\ Finally, RefSeq entries derived from DNA sequences instead of \ mRNA sequences were added to produce the final data set shown in this track. \ Disease annotations were obtained from SWISS-PROT.

Specifically, ECgene takes alternative splicing events \ into consideration. The position of splice sites, i.e. exon-intron boundaries, \ in the genome map is utilized as the critical information in the whole \ procedure. Sequences that share any splice sites in the genomic alignment are \ grouped together to define an EST cluster. Transcript assembly, which is based \ on graph theory, produces gene models and clone evidence, which is essentially \ identical to sub-clustering according to splice variants.\
\ For more detailed information, see the ECgene website.\ \
\ Initially, the first group was searched for the ORF with the longest CDS. \ Coding sequences were accepted if they were longer than 30 amino acids (93 bp) \ or they were identical to one of SwissProt proteins excluding fragmented \ entries. If such an ORF could not be identified in the first group, the other \ groups were examined sequentially for the presence of an ORF using the same \ criteria. Genes lacking an apparent ORF were defined as non-coding RNA genes. \
\ The Twinscan program predicts genes in a manner similar to Genscan, except \ that Twinscan takes advantage of genome comparisons to improve gene prediction\ accuracy.

\\ Geneid is a program to predict genes in anonymous genomic sequences designed \ with a hierarchical structure.

Exons are scored as the sum of the \ scores of the defining sites, plus the the log-likelihood ratio of a \ Markov Model for coding DNA. Finally, from the set of predicted exons, the gene \ structure is assembled, maximizing the sum of the scores of the assembled exons. \

\ This track shows alignments between $organism expressed sequence tags \ (ESTs) in GenBank and the genome that show signs of splicing when\ aligned against the genome. ESTs are single-read sequences, typically about \ 500 bases in length, that usually represent fragments of transcribed genes.\
\\ To be considered spliced, an EST must show \ evidence of at least one canonical intron, i.e. the genomic \ sequence between EST alignment blocks must be at least 32 bases in \ length and have GT/AG ends. By requiring splicing, the level \ of contamination in the EST databases is drastically reduced\ at the expense of eliminating many genuine 3' ESTs.\ For a display of all ESTs (including unspliced), see the \ $organism EST track.
\ \\ This track follows the display conventions for \ PSL alignment tracks. In dense display mode, darker shading\ indicates a larger number of aligned ESTs.
\\ The strand information (+/-) indicates the\ direction of the match between the EST and the matching\ genomic sequence. It bears no relationship to the direction\ of transcription of the RNA with which it might be associated.

\ \\ To make an EST, RNA is isolated from cells and reverse\ transcribed into cDNA. Typically, the cDNA is cloned\ into a plasmid vector and a read is taken from the 5'\ and/or 3' primer. For most — but not all — ESTs, the\ reverse transcription is primed by an oligo-dT, which\ hybridizes with the poly-A tail of mature mRNA. The\ reverse transcriptase may or may not make it to the 5'\ end of the mRNA, which may or may not be degraded.
\\ In general, the 3' ESTs mark the end of transcription\ reasonably well, but the 5' ESTs may end at any point\ within the transcript. Some of the newer cap-selected\ libraries cover transcription start reasonably well. Before the \ cap-selection techniques\ emerged, some projects used random rather than poly-A\ priming in an attempt to retrieve sequence distant from the\ 3' end.

\ \ regulation 1 cpgIslandExt CpG Islands bed 4 + CpG Islands (Islands < 300 Bases are Light Green) 0 90 0 100 0 128 228 128 0 0 0\ CpG islands are associated with genes, particularly housekeeping\ genes, in vertebrates. CpG islands are typically common near\ transcription start sites, and may be associated with promoter\ regions. Normally a C (cytosine) base followed immediately by a \ G (guanine) base (a CpG) is rare in\ vertebrate DNA because the Cs in such an arrangement tend to be\ methylated. This methylation helps distinguish the newly synthesized\ DNA strand from the parent strand, which aids in the final stages of\ DNA proofreading after duplication. However, over evolutionary time\ methylated Cs tend to turn into Ts because of spontaneous\ deamination. The result is that CpGs are relatively rare unless\ there is selective pressure to keep them or a region is not methylated\ for some reason, perhaps having to do with the regulation of gene\ expression. CpG islands are regions where CpGs are present at\ significantly higher levels than is typical for the genome as a whole.\
\ \\ CpG islands were predicted by searching the sequence one base at a\ time, scoring each dinucleotide (+17 for CG and -1 for others) and\ identifying maximally scoring segments. Each segment was then\ evaluated for the following criteria:\
\ The CpG count is the number of CG dinucleotides in the island. \ The Percentage CpG is the ratio of CpG nucleotide bases\ (twice the CpG count) to the length. The ratio of observed to expected \ CpG is calculated according to the formula cited in \ Gardiner-Garden et al. (1987) in the References section below: \
\ Obs/Exp CpG = Number of CpG * N / (Number of C * Number of G)\\ where N = length of sequence.\ \ \
\ This track was generated using a\ modification of a program developed by G. Miklem and L. Hillier.

\\ Please be aware that some mapping inconsistencies are known to exist in \ the dbSnp data set. If you encounter information that seems incorrect on \ the details page for a variant, we advise you to verify the record information\ on the dbSnp website using the provided link.

\\ Variants are shown as single tick marks at most zoom levels.\ When viewing the track at or near base-level resolution, the displayed\ width of the SNP corresponds to the width of the variant in the reference\ sequence. Insertions are indicated by a single tick mark displayed between\ two nucleotides, single nucleotide polymorphisms are displayed as the width \ of a single base, and multiple nucleotide variants are represented by a \ block that spans two or more bases.\

\ LS-SNP is a database of functional and structural SNP annotations\ with links to protein structure models. Annotations are based on a\ variety of features extracted from protein structure, sequence, and\ evolution. Currently only coding non-synonomous SNPs are included.\ LS-SNP at UCSF.\
\ \\ The SNPs in this track include all known polymorphisms available in the\ current build of dbSnp that can be mapped against the current assembly. \ The version of dbSnp from which these data were obtained can be found in the\ SNP track entry in the Genome Browser \ release log.\
\\ There are two reasons that some variants may not be mapped and/or\ annotated in this track:\
\ The heuristics for the non-SNP variations (i.e. named elements and\ short tandem repeats (STRs)) are quite conservative; therefore, some of \ these are probably lost. This approach was chosen to avoid false \ annotation of variation in inappropriate locations.\

\
\ In full display mode, this track shows the overall conservation score across \ all species, as well as pairwise alignments \ of rat, human, dog, and chicken, each aligned to the \ $organism genome. The pairwise alignments are\ shown in dense display mode using a grayscale \ density gradient. The checkboxes in the track configuration section allow\ the exclusion of species from the pairwise display; however, this does not\ remove them from the conservation score display.
\\ When zoomed-in to the base-display level, the track shows the base \ composition of each alignment. The numbers and symbols on the Gaps\ line indicate the lengths of gaps in the $organism sequence at those \ alignment positions relative to the longest non-$organism sequence. \ If there is sufficient space in the display, the size of the gap is shown; \ if not, and if the gap size is a multiple of 3, a "*" is displayed, \ otherwise "+" is shown. \ To view detailed information about the alignments at a specific position,\ zoom in the display to 30,000 or fewer bases, then click on the alignment.
\\ This track may be configured in a variety of ways to highlight different \ aspects of the displayed information. Click \ here\ for an explanation of the configuration options.
\ \\ Best-in-genome blastz pairwise alignments \ were multiply aligned using multiz, beginning with $organism-rat alignments\ and subsequently adding in human, dog, and chicken.\ The resulting multiple alignments were then assigned \ conservation scores by phastCons.
\\ The phastCons program computes conservation scores based on a phylo-HMM, a\ type of probabilistic model that describes both the process of DNA\ substitution at each site in a genome and the way this process changes from\ one site to the next (Felsenstein and Churchill 1996, Yang 1995, Siepel and\ Haussler 2005). PhastCons uses a two-state phylo-HMM, with a state for\ conserved regions and a state for non-conserved regions. The value plotted\ at each site is the posterior probability that the corresponding alignment\ column was "generated" by the conserved state of the phylo-HMM. These\ scores reflect the phylogeny (including branch lengths) of the species in\ question, a continuous-time Markov model of the nucleotide substitution\ process, and a tendency for conservation levels to be autocorrelated along\ the genome (i.e., to be similar at adjacent sites). The general reversible\ (REV) substitution model was used. Note that, unlike many\ conservation-scoring programs, phastCons does not rely on a sliding window\ of fixed size, so short highly-conserved regions and long moderately\ conserved regions can both obtain high scores. More information about\ phastCons can be found in Siepel et al. (2005).
\\ PhastCons currently treats alignment gaps as missing data, which\ sometimes has the effect of producing undesirably high conservation scores\ in gappy regions of the alignment. We are looking at several possible ways\ of improving the handling of alignment gaps.

PhastCons Conserved Elements, Rat/Human/Dog/Chicken 0 100.1 0 0 0 127 127 127 0 0 0\ This track shows predictions of conserved elements produced by the phastCons\ program. PhastCons is part of the PHAST (PHylogenetic Analysis with \ Space/Time models) package. The predictions are based on a phylogenetic hidden \ Markov model (phylo-HMM), a type of probabilistic model that describes both \ the process of DNA substitution at each site in a genome and the way this \ process changes from one site to the next.
\ \\ Best-in-genome pairwise alignments were generated for\ each species using blastz, followed by chaining and netting. A multiple\ alignment was then constructed from these pairwise alignments using multiz.\ Predictions of conserved elements were then obtained by running phastCons\ on the multiple alignments with the --most-conserved option.
\\ PhastCons constructs a two-state phylo-HMM with a state for conserved\ regions and a state for non-conserved regions. The two states share a\ single phylogenetic model, except that the branch lengths of the tree\ associated with the conserved state are multiplied by a constant scaling\ factor rho (0 <= rho <= 1). The free parameters of the\ phylo-HMM, including the scaling factor rho, are estimated from\ the data by maximum likelihood using an EM algorithm. This procedure is\ subject to certain constraints on the "coverage" of the genome by conserved\ elements and the "smoothness" of the conservation scores. Details can be\ found in Siepel et al. (2005).
\\ The predicted conserved elements are segments of the alignment that are\ likely to have been "generated" by the conserved state of the phylo-HMM.\ Each element is assigned a log-odds score equal to its log probability\ under the conserved model minus its log probability under the non-conserved\ model. The "score" field associated with this track contains transformed\ log-odds scores, taking values between 0 and 1000. (The scores are\ transformed using a monotonic function of the form a * log(x) + b.) The\ raw log odds scores are retained in the "name" field and can be seen on the\ details page or in the browser when the track's display mode is set to\ "pack" or "full".

\ \\ The chainNet, netSyntenic, and netClass programs were\ developed at the University of California\ Santa Cruz by Jim Kent.
\\ Blastz was developed at Pennsylvania State University by\ Minmei Hou, Scott Schwartz, Zheng Zhang, and Webb Miller with advice from\ Ross Hardison.
\\ Lineage-specific repeats were identified by Arian Smit and his\ program RepeatMasker.\
\\ The browser display and database storage of the nets were made\ by Robert Baertsch and Jim Kent.
