Description

This track depicts masked sequence as determined by WindowMasker. The WindowMasker tool is included in the NCBI C++ toolkit. The source code for the entire toolkit is available from the NCBI FTP site.

Methods

To create this track, WindowMasker was run with the following parameters:

windowmasker -mk_counts true -input hg19.fa -output wm_counts
windowmasker -ustat wm_counts -sdust true -input hg19.fa -output repeats.bed
The repeats.bed (BED3) file was loaded into the "windowmaskerSdust" table for this track.
