太久没有做表观调控的项目了,所以没怎么使用Genome Browser(基因组浏览器),但是最近发现它居然也有单细胞信息啦,值得分享!
UCSC Genome Browser 的开发和维护是由多个资助机构支持的,包括美国国立卫生研究院(NIH)等。此外,还有其他机构和项目也开发了自己的基因组浏览器,如Ensembl浏览器由欧洲生物信息学研究所(EMBL-EBI)维护,它们都对生物信息学领域的发展起到了重要作用。它是一种用于可视化和探索基因组数据的生物信息学工具。它允许研究人员在基因组的特定区域中查看和分析各种类型的数据,包括基因、转录本、蛋白质结合位点、表观遗传标记等。 Genome Browser 最初是由加州大学圣克鲁斯分校(UCSC)的基因组生物信息学研究所开发的。UCSC Genome Browser 是由加州大学圣克鲁斯分校的科学家们,包括著名的计算生物学家David Haussler及其团队,于2000年左右首次推出的。这个工具是基于公共人类基因组计划数据开发的,目的是提供一个用户友好的界面,使研究人员能够浏览和分析整个基因组的数据。
We are excited to release a new Genome Browser track group with single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) datasets for the hg38 assembly. Data generated by scRNA-seq allows us to study the heterogeneity of cells in organs, explore gene expression at a cellular level, and track cellular states in both development and disease.

We are starting with 14 scRNA-seq tracks covering different major organs of the body. Each new scRNA-seq track contains anywhere from 2-19 individual mRNA expression tracks in barChart format. By default, tracks display gene expression per individual cell type annotation and are colored according to cell class:

When available, expression tracks organized by other categories such as sex, donor, sample, detailed cell type, etc. are also included in these container tracks. In all of the tracks, the gene expression is averaged for each item in a category. 详见:https://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/newsarch.html#111721
