Description
Umap single-read and multi-read mappability
- Umap single-read mappability
-
These tracks mark any region of the genome that is uniquely mappable by at least one
k-mer. To calculate the single-read mappability, you must find the overlap of a given
region with this track.
- Umap multi-read mappability
-
These tracks represent the probability that a randomly selected k-mer which overlaps
with a given position is uniquely mappable.
For greater detail and explanatory diagrams, see the
publication, the
Umap and Bismap project website, or the
Umap and Bismap software
documentation.
You can use these tracks for many purposes, including filtering unreliable signal from
sequencing assays.
Data Access
The raw data can be explored interactively with the Table Browser, or the Data Integrator. For automated analysis, genome annotation is stored in a bigBed
or bigWig file that can be downloaded from the
download
server. Individual regions or the whole genome annotation can be obtained using our tool
bigBedToBed or bigWigToWig, which can be compiled from the source code or
downloaded as a precompiled binary for your system. Instructions for downloading source code and
binaries can be found here.
The tool can also be used to obtain only features within a given range, for example:
bigBedToBed -chrom=chr6 -start=0 -end=1000000

bigWigToWig -chrom=chr6 -start=0 -end=1000000
http://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/gbdb/hs1/hoffmanMappability/k24.Umap.MultiTrackMappability.bw
stdout

Mehran Karimzadeh (Michael Hoffman
lab, Princess Margaret Cancer Centre) implemented the Python version of Umap and added features,
including Bismap.
