Running this process for the
UCSC_Chrom_Pos_example
sample setting generates an html document containing links to the UCSC genome browser for each position in the data set. Refer to the
UCSC Genome Browser Link
process description for more information.
Since
Chromosome
and
Position
were selected as
variables
to retain in the
.html
table, the position of each
probeset
on
chromosome
1 is given, along with links to the appropriate location in the genome browser. Clicking on any of the links takes you to the UCSC genome browser.
You can run the
UCSC Genome Browser Link
process multiple times and choose additional quantitative variables for upload to the browser as separate tracks, such as fold changes, -log
10
(
p-value
), or
test statistics
from
association
. By uploading, managing, and viewing multiple custom tracks within the UCSC Genome Browser, you can link diverse data types to chromosomal positions and look for interesting trends. A number of additional custom tracks are also publicly available to users of the UCSC Genome Browser that offer further options for placing analysis results into chromosomal and biological context.
