Dear UCSC scientists, I want to transform some Rhesus genome coordinates to human using the liftOver tool; however, I found a warning message as follows:
WARNING: liftOver was only designed to work between different assemblies of the same organism; it may not do what you want if you are lifting between different organisms. It seems UCSC has already performed genome-wide alignment between different genomes. Does it make sense to perform the transformation between Rhesus and human using LiftOver (some other groups reported this protocol before (in the section ‘HTR definition and analysis’): http://www.ploscompbiol.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pcbi.1000843 Or are there any other tools to transform the coordinates between species? I look forward to your response. Thank you. Best regards, CY _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
