This track depicts Multi-Species Conserved Sequences (MCS) defined using a conservation score threshold from the binomial-based method that selects the top 5% most conserved sequence.
Additional information about the methods used to produce these data is available in the paper Margulies, E. et al. (2003) "Identification and Characterization of Multi-Species Conserved Sequences". Genome Res. 13:2507-2518.
This track was generated by Elliott Margulies at NHGRI. Ryan Weber of the UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group provided the computational support for the track display.
