Hi UCSC,
I have a suggestion regarding the Table Browser. Currently whenever we want to extract either sequences or BED coordinates from the Table Browser we have the option to add bases Upstream and Downstream of the features that we're interested in, but this is from the Boundaries of the feature. May I suggest that you add another functionality of extracting the extra bases from the Centre of the features itself so that in the end I can easily get for example 100 bp-long regions centered on Exapted Repeats. I do a lot of binding site analysis and often I need to extract 200 bp-long sequences centered on the binding regions identified by ChIP-chip for motif analysis. At the moment I have to format the BED files on my own to get those 200 bp-long regions before submitting them as Custom Track and extracting the sequences. I figure if you have that functionality built-in into Table Browser users can just input their original BED file and extract whatever length of sequences centered on those regions easily instead of creating a new BED format for every length of intervals they require. Thank you for your attention.
