The GC percent track shows the percentage of G (guanine) and C (cytosine) bases in 5-base windows on the 09 Jan 2023 Neoarius graeffei/GCF_027579695.1_fNeoGra1.pri/GCF_027579695.1 genome assembly. High GC content is typically associated with gene-rich areas. The average overall GC percent for the entire assembly is % 42.44.
This track may be configured in a variety of ways to highlight different aspects of the displayed information. Click the "Graph configuration help" link for an explanation of the configuration options.
This track is displayed from the bigWig file:
https://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/hubs/GCF/027/579/695/GCF_027579695.1/bbi/GCF_027579695.1_fNeoGra1.pri.gc5Base.bw
You can extract the data from that file with the
kent command line program: bigWigToWig:
bigWigToWig https://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/hubs/GCF/027/579/695/GCF_027579695.1/bbi/GCF_027579695.1_fNeoGra1.pri.gc5Base.bw stdout \
| gzip -c > GCF_027579695.1.gc5Base.varStep.gz
Or, you can calculate that data locally at the 5-base window size
with the following kent command line program hgGcPercent:
hgGcPercent -wigOut -doGaps -file=stdout -win=5 -verbose=0 test \
