[Genome] how to find a zebrafish BAC clone based on sequence information

[Pauline Fujita]

Hello Jenny,

The BAC End Pairs track isn't available for the most recent Zebrafish 
assembly (July 2007) but it is available for older assemblies (ie. March 
2006). So if you select an older assembly you should see a track control 
for the BAC End Pairs track in the "Mapping and Sequencing Tracks" group 
at the top. Once you turn on the track, you can click on any of the 
clones in the display and that will take you to a description page for 
that clone that should contain all the details you need.

If you are concerned about checking for the position of the clone 
relative to the newest assembly you can also BLAT the clone  sequence 
against the newest assembly. 

Hopefully this information was helpful and answers your question. If you 
have further questions or require clarification feel free to contact the 
mailing list at genome at soe.ucsc.edu.
