Fig. 1. Xenbase GBrowse with NGS data. A. The default view of the cox18 gene in Xenbase, with multiple NGS tracks displayed in a stacked format using a tool called Topoview, developed by FlyBase (http://flybase.org/static_pages/docs/software/topoview.html). Note the large histone H3 lysine 4 methylation (H3K4me1) peak at stage 9 over the transcription start site for this gene. To view additional/alternative tracks, select the “Select Tracks” tab circled in red. B. The Select Tracks view offers an enormous number of supporting NGS data including histone methylation and acetylation, p300 and RNA polymerase binding sites and RNA-seq data. As noted in the text, the content currently varies with the genome build, so exploring other genome versions is worthwhile. To go back to the browser view click on the “Browser” tab on the top left or the “Back to Browser” button at the bottom of the page.
