Description

This track shows alignments of International Gene Trap Consortium sequence tags to the $organism genome. Items are labeled by cell line and colored by source:
BG: BayGenomics (USA)
CMHD: Centre for Modeling Human Disease (Toronto, Canada)
EGTC: Exchangeable Gene Trap Clones (Kumamoto University, Japan)
ESDB: Embryonic Stem Cell Database (University of Manitoba, Canada)
FHCRC: Soriano Lab Gene Trap Database (originally at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, USA; now at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, Manhattan, NY)
GGTC: German Gene Trap Consortium (Germany)
SIGTR: Sanger Institute Gene Trap Resource (Cambridge, UK)
TIGEM: TIGEM-IRBM Gene Trap (Naples, Italy)
TIGM: Texas Institute for Genomic Medicine (Houston, Texas)

Methods

The IGTC pipeline uses BLAT to align sequence tags from dbGSS to the $organism genome and BLAST to match sequence tags to genes. The pipeline filters and reconciles the two sets of alignments to associate cell lines with trapped genes.
