Testing genomewiki hosting bigBed/bigWig custom tracks

Human assembly custom tracks

Tracks providing CpG island strength predictions and mapping of bona fide CpG islands for the human genome (hg17/hg18). The tracks are based on large-scale epigenome predictions, which give rise to an improved and quantitative annotation of CpG islands. Additional information on these tracks is available from the supplementary website and from the corresponding paper Bock, C. et al. CpG island mapping by epigenome prediction to appear in PLoS Comput Biol. For prioritization of candidate regions, the quantitative CpG island strength predictions are recommended (hg17/hg18). For genome annotation, three maps of bona fide CpG islands are provided: (i) a highly specific map (hg17/hg18), (ii) a balanced map recommended for most applications (hg17/hg18) and (iii) a highly sensitive map (hg17/hg18). Finally, all tracks can be viewed simultaneously (hg17/hg18).
