Hi there -

Thanks a lot!

This worked great for me, but I have an additional question: How do I get the 
details of how the CpG islands in this table were determined (island definition 
criteria etc.)

Dear Carlo,

To download CpG Islands across the genome there is a great tool called the 
table browser.

To access the table browser click on "Tables" in the navigation bar.
1) Select clade: "Mammal"
2) Select genome: "Rat"
3) Select group: "Expression and Regulation"
4) Select track: "CpG Islands"
5) Select "genome"
6) For output format: select the output that interests you.
7) For the output file: put the file name that you want saved.
8) Click on "get outPut"

For the other genomes you can follow the same procedure above. Note that the 
group may just be "Expression" instead of "Expression and Regulation" when 
looking at other genomes.

For additional help there is the user's guide: 
http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTablesHelp.html and a tutorial:

Please contact the mailing list if you have further questions.

Subject: [Genome] cpg island locations across the genome

hi there,

 

i am wondering if ucsc genome browser has a database of mapped cpg islands
across the genome (such as a track in the browser that I could download)? i
am most interested in rat, but would like to look at human and mouse too. i
am interested in downloading all the locations, not just searching one gene
for cpg islands.

 

thanks,

carlo
