Description

This track shows DNase hypersensitive areas assayed in a large collection of cell types. Regulatory regions in general, and promoters in particular, tend to be DNase sensitive. Additional views of this dataset and additional documentation on the methods used for this track are available at the UW DNaseI HS page. The Peaks view in that page is the basis for the clusters shown here, which combine data from the peaks of the different cell lines in that page.

Display conventions

A gray box indicates the extent of the hypersensitive region. The darkness is proportional to the maximum signal strength observed in any cell line. The number to the left of the box shows how many cell lines are hypersensitive in the region.

This track shows data from the UW ENCODE group.

Data Release Policy

Data users may freely use ENCODE data, but may not, without prior consent, submit publications that use an unpublished ENCODE dataset until nine months following the release of the dataset. The full data release policy for ENCODE is available here.
