Vizhub @ Wash U built this track, and Roadmap Epigenomics Consortium is responsible for its contents.

Description

The track files were processed and hosted by ENCODE project.

This track displays histone modification maps generated using ChIP-Seq for the Roadmap project. Experiments include various histone marks over a number of normal sample types. Histone marks are critical epigenetic components. They are covalent modifications of amino acid residues of histone proteins, which modify protein's biochemical property and affect transcription and chromatin state. The histone marks are measured by ChIP-Seq experiments (chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing).

Display conventions

This track displays read density data in form of wiggle plots. Number of aligned reads is counted at each base pair, and a summarized value is computed for each 20 bp interval for display. The subtracks can be displayed and configured individually. See instructions .
