Hi,
quick question: in the Mapping&Sequencing section, above Genes&Gene Predictions,
FISH mapped clones are shown as either green or red blocks. - Is there any significance
to this color assignment, i.e. a difference between red and green BAC clones?

Thank you,
R. Ebner

Hello,

The items in that track are dark green by default. The coloring you
are seeing is the result of some filtering being turned on in the
display. From the description page for that track:

This track has a filter that can be used to change the color or
include/exclude the display of a dataset from an individual lab. This
is helpful when many items are shown in the track display, especially
when only some are relevant to the current task. The filter is located
at the top of the track description page, which is accessed via the
small button to the left of the track's graphical display or through
the link on the track's control menu.

For hg19 the description page url is:

http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg19&c=chr21&g=fishClones

It sounds like the display you are seeing has some items selected in
the filter set to display in red, you will have to look at the
description page to see what filter criteria is being displayed.

Hopefully that helps, if you have any further questions please reply
to gen...@soe.ucsc.edu. All messages sent to that address are archived

includes sensitive data, you may send it instead to
