- Jump to the next point of interest. Click on a track name on the left side of the window (Ex: bowtie.vcf), then it will be selected. You can then use
control-fandcontrol-bto jump forward and backward within that list of features. Try this on the variant calls. - Jump right to a gene. Typing its name in to the search box. Try "topA".
- Navigate more quickly. The
homeandendkeys jump a page backward and forward. - Load multiple VCF and BAM alignments at once. Try this to compare a few different regions between the bowtie and BWA results.
- Change the appearance of genes. Right click on the gene track and try "expanded". Experiment with the other options.
- Change the appearance of reads. Right click on a BAM track and choose "show all bases" and "expanded". Experiment with the other options.
Exercises
- Check out the rbsA gene region? What's going on here?
- What is going on in the pykF gene region? You might see red read pairs. What does that mean?
- Go to coordinate 2,698,092. Compare the bowtie and BWA alignments. Can you explain what's going on here?
- Go to coordinate 475,263. What's the story here?
