Hi Genome Browser folks,

I'm currently working on a project that requires lifting functional annotations from a handful of species to updated reference genomes that are more contiguous. I was able to get from UCSC Genome Browser the liftOver chain files that I need for rhesus macaque (rheMac8ToRheMac10), mouse (mm10ToMm39), and dog (canFam3ToCanFam4). However, I still need liftOver chains for rat and marmoset, specifically:

Rat: Rnor_6.0 (GCF_000001895.5/GCA_000001895.4) to GRCr8 (GCF_036323735.1/GCA_036323735.1)
Marmoset: ASM275486v1 (GCA_002754865.1) to mCalJa1.2.pat.X (GCF_011100555.1/GCA_011100555.2)

What would be the best way to generate these liftOver chain files?

Thank you for any help you can provide!

Best regards,

Hi, Stephen.

Thanks for reaching out. We are running up these liftOver files now; they should be ready in a couple of days. We'll follow up with you then.

Hi, Takeshi.

We recommend the user of our API over the DAS server now (
https://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/api.html).

For example, here is the query you wish to make on the API:

https://api.genome.ucsc.edu/getData/sequence?genome=hs1;chrom=chr1;start=100000;end=200000

How did you come across our DAS server? It does not get much attention these days.
