Birmingham UCSC Trackhub

What Are Track Hubs?

Track hubs are web-accessible directories of genomic data that can be viewed on the UCSC Genome Browser (please note that hosting hub files on HTTP tends to work even better than FTP and local hubs can be displayed on GBiB).

How to get your Track Hubs on to the web-acessible directories?

Please Contact:

bear-software@contacts.bham.ac.uk

Please ensure paths are correct in the

hub.txt and genomes.txt for each data folder

i.e. for LoLa Hub it has:

genomes.txt


 genome mm10

 trackDb /data/LoLa/mm10/trackDb.txt

 metaTab /data/LoLa/mm10/meta.txt

hub.txt


 Hub

 shortLabel LoLa Data

 longLabel LoLa ChIP and DNaseI Data - Goode et al. Dev Cell 2006

 genomesFile /data/LoLa/genomes.txt

 email b.edginton-white@bham.ac.uk
