[Genome] cytogenetic map

[Brooke Rhead]

Hello Niv,

The cytogenetic map information is contained in a table called 
'cytoband'.  To get to it, click on the "Tables" link in the
top blue bar of our site, then make the following selections:

clade: vertebrate
genome: human
assembly: Mar. 2006 (this is our latest human assembly)
group: mapping and sequencing tracks
track: chromosome band
table: cytoband
region: genome
output format: all fields from selected table

If you wish to save the results in a file on your computer, enter a name 
in the "output file" box.  Hit "get output".  You should get a list like 
this:

#chrom	chromStart	chromEnd	name	gieStain
chr1	0		2300000		p36.33	gneg
chr1	2300000		5300000		p36.32	gpos25
chr1	5300000		7100000		p36.31	gneg
chr1	7100000		9200000		p36.23	gpos25
. . .

Please let us know if you have any further questions.
