Description

Reference alignment of mouse genome vs. the human genome constructed from the Mouse Translated Blat Alignments track.

Methods

The track is constructed by selecting the best-scoring BLAT alignment for each aligned position in the genome. Mouse insertions are included in the reference alignment when they follow the last base of a BLAT block, although this process is not entirely perfected.

Data Release Policy

This data is made available before scientific publication with the following understanding:

  1. The data may be freely downloaded, used in analyses, and repackaged in databases.
  2. Users are free to use the data in scientific papers analyzing particular genes and regions if the providers of this data (the Mouse Sequencing Consortium) are properly acknowledged.
  3. The Centers producing the data reserve the right to publish the initial large-scale analyses of the dataset-including large-scale identification of regions of evolutionary conservation and large-scale genomic assembly. Large-scale refers to regions with size on the order of a chromosome (that is, 30 Mb or more).
  4. Any redistribution of the data should carry this notice.
