Dear Vanessa, It was not immediately obvious to me from the TFBS track credits section what, if anything, I should cite. It says that the data was generated by a Biobase program and created by Matt Weirauch and Brian Raney, but does not point to anything. I then looked up other papers that used the track, and none of the ones I looked at cite anything. They simply say in the text that they looked at the TFBS track in the UCSC browser (e.g. eFelice, PLoS One; Choy, BMC Genomics) and in one case ref the UCSC url (Cai, Cancer Research).
I just wanted to be sure that understanding is clear. Perhaps I could do what they did i the main text cite the Kent 2002 Gen Res paper. But if there is any better way to do this, I would love your guidance in order to give the right attribution.
