Hi Vinayak,

The Table browser can do this for you. To get to the table browser
click on "Tables" from the blue navigation bar which will take you to
this page: http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables.

Here is an example of the settings to use for hg19:

clade: Mammal
genome:  Human
assembly: hg19
group: Mapping and Sequencing Tracks
track:  Mapability
table: wgEncodeCrgMapabilityAlign100mer
region: genome (if the query is too large you will need to set this to
position and do it chromosome by chromosome)
filter: data value >= 0.5 and Limit data output to: 10,000,000 lines
output format: bed format

Click "get output"

Repeat the above this for wgEncodeDukeMapabilityUniqueness35bp by
changing the table to:

table: wgEncodeDukeMapabilityUniqueness35bp


If you are unfamiliar with the table browser, please see the following:

Subject: [Genome] Analysis on specific regions of mappability track
To: [email protected]


Dear UCSC team,
I am trying to analyze regions of the genome that have low mappability i.e
mappability score 0.5 or higher. What would work best for me is a bed like
file having just these regions in it (a plus would be having the score in
the fourth column).

I looked at the bigWig files in the downloads section
(wgEncodeCrgMapabilityAlign100mer
and wgEncodeDukeMapabilityUniqueness35bp) but could not figure out how to
convert those into bed or a format where I could easily extract
the relevant regions for a mappability score threshold (in my case 0.5 or
higher).

Could you please help me?

Thanks a lot,
Vinayak
