Description
This track shows the BLAT alignments of your sequence(s) to the genome
assembly. In the Genome Browser, alignments of nucleotides use color
to highlight differences as follows:
- red: Genome and query sequence have
different bases at this position.
- orange: The query sequence has an
insertion (or genome has a deletion / alignment gap) at this point.
- purple: The query sequence extends
beyond the end of the alignment.
- green: The query sequence appears to
have a polyA tail which is not aligned to the genome.
Also, when the alignment has gaps for both genome and query sequence,
double horizontal lines are drawn.
