Dear helpdesk, here comes quite a beginners question regard the histone mark track For example, if I have a histone mark with the signal value 7,01 and a p-Value 13,875.
If I know click on "view table" scheme, and then on "range" for the signal value in the table, I get a min/ max and average value, for our example min 6, max 42808.602, average 16.83. Are these range values always the same for a certain cell line and histone modifikation? In my example the signal value would be close to the minimum value and below the average one. Does this mean that it is probably of no biological significance? Is a signal value above the average always biologically important? Summerising, I do have problems to interpret and compare different signal values and their p-value referring to the probability that a histone is binding to the specific DNA-sequence. Thanks a lot, Ruth. _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - Genome@soe.ucsc.edu https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
