Have just been asked to produce a relatively complex graphic track from a transcriptome sequencing population study. Basically the investigator would like to see the distribution of the transcriptomic data. for example, 1st quartile, mean, 3 quartile, max for each transcript. Has anyone done anything similar? Should I separate the tracks, min-max, 1st-mean-3rd? Which file format is best suited for this representation of the data? Chris

You could use the rtracklayer BigWig export to create a separate track for each statistic.

For example, you could, for example, build a small application using the relatively newly released shiny package displaying a histogram or multiple density plots of the data for a given transcript. http://www.rstudio.com/shiny/ Sean [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
