Hi All,

I understand using UCSC Browser we can view only one chromosome related data at a time, is it possible to view all chromosomes (22 chromosomes) in a single window similar karyo view etc.,

For eg., I have a BED file created which contains all the 22 chromosomes, its start and end position, strand value etc., when I display this in UCSC Browser it displays only one chromosome and its related data. I need to see all the 22 chromosomes related data.

Please let me know if it is possible to do that in UCSC Browser.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks and regards,
Chittybabu G

Hello Chittybabu,

There is a tool in the Genome Browser that will display all chromosomes
at once, called Genome Graphs. You can get to it by going to our home
page and finding the Genome Graphs link on the left-hand side of the
page, in the light blue vertical bar. Here is a direct link:
http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgGenome .

The Genome Graphs User's Guide is here:

Hi again Chittybabu,

I would like to add that you can start by uploading your BED file as a
custom track. Then, in Genome Graphs, you can hit the "import" button
and select your custom track table to import. Once that is done, your
data will be available for graphing on the main Genome Graphs page.

I hope this helps get you started. Please feel free to email
gen...@soe.ucsc.edu again if you have further questions.
