This directory contains annotation files for the slime mold |
9 |
Dictyostelium discoideum strain Ax4 genome that was available as of |
10 |
May, 2009. Ann Loraine (of the <a |
11 |
href="http://www.transvar.org">Loraine Lab</a>) created all the files |
12 |
you see here using GFF files obtained in July 2010 from the <a |
13 |
href="http://www.dictybase.org/Downloads/"> dictyBase file Download |
14 |
section</a>. |
15 |
</p> |
16 |
<p> |
17 |
To access these data in Integrated Genome Browser, launch IGB (see: |
18 |
<a href="http://www.bioviz.org/igb">bioviz.org/igb</a>) and |
19 |
choose species Dictyostelium discoideum Ax4 and then genome version |
20 |
D_discoideum_Ax4_May_2009 in the Data Access Panel. |
21 |
(For documentation about IGB, see <a href="http://wiki.transvar.org/confluence/display/igbman/Home">The IGB User's Guide</a>.) |

<p> |
24 |
All the available data files you see in this directory |
25 |
should appear in the Data Sources section of the Data Access panel. If you want to load |
26 |
everything all at once into several tracks, choose ALL and then choose Load Mode |
27 |
Whole Genome under the Load Mode section of the Data Access Panel. The Dicty genome is |
28 |
a very manageable size, and so we highly recommend you load everything all at once! |
29 |
</p> |
30 |
<p> |
31 |
To view genomic sequence, zoom in and click Load Sequence in View or Load All Sequence. The |
32 |
latter will load all the sequence for the current chromsome. Since this genome is quite |
33 |
small, we highly recommend the Load All Sequence option. |
34 |
</p> |
35 |
<p> |
36 |
To load next-gen sequencing data from sorted, indexed BAM files, just click-drag them |
37 |
from your desktop or a server into the IGB interface. The same goes for "bar" (tiling |
38 |
array) files. |
