This track shows predictions from the
Genscan program
written by Chris Burge.
The predictions are based on transcriptional,
translational, and donor/acceptor splicing signals, as well as the length
and compositional distributions of exons, introns and intergenic regions.
The track description page offers the following filter and configuration
options:
Color track by codons: Select the genomic codons option
to color and label each codon in a zoomed-in display to facilitate validation
and comparison of gene predictions. Click
