Description

This track displays alignments of the mouse genome vs. the human genome.

Methods

The alignments were done with blat in translated protein mode using the parameters -q=dnax -t=dnax and otherwise the default settings. Both genomes were masked with RepeatMasker and Tandem Repeats Finder before running blat. Places where more than 250 alignments happened over the same place were filtered out. Beware of alignments of greater than 97% identity: these may reflect mouse contamination in the human genome or human contamination in the mouse genome.
