The ENCODE project aims to discover the bulk of functional elements in the human genome by intensively annotating 1% of the genome.
The ENCODE project has 44 separate regions across the genome. These were either chosen by a stratified random selection or because they are
biologically inspired regions and chosen mainly for their existing density of
experimental results (e.g. parts of chromosome 22 and the CFTR region on chromosome 7).
This page coordinates the resources available via the Ensembl browser for
the ENCODE project. Through the links below, you can
- browse the ENCODE regions in ContigView
- simultaneously view other species data in MultiContigView
- use
the EnsMart data mining tool to dump gene and
gene-associated features in the ENCODE region
The ENCODE project primary data management is at UCSC and we are coordinating with them to deliver genome resources
for ENCODE. Information at UCSC on the ENCODE regions is here.
