Description
Daofeng Li and co-authors present a 2023 tool for viewing chemical marks on DNA in long read sequencing. Long reads can now spot base modifications with good accuracy, which opens a fresh window on the epigenome. Genome browsers, though, lacked a way to show those marks well.
The team adds a track type, called modbed, to the WashU Epigenome Browser. The track shows mark detail read by read and also pooled marks across one or many molecules, at zoom levels that shift on the fly. Files can be uploaded as a local track or viewed by a public link at no cost. The tool aims to make epigenome data easy to explore.
