3. Topological View

Delta uses a Circos-like style to show topology of 3D genome with other omcis data.

3.1 Add custom tracks
Users can add own annotated data into Topological View by clicking ˇ°Uploadˇ± button. A web page like the following will be shown.

The meaning of each field be described as follows.

Field Name Description
Dataset Name name your dataset
Track NameThe name of track, which will be shown in the web page
Genome Assembly Currently only support hg18,hg19
Glyph Type Interaction: the track will be shown as an arc in the inner circle.
Histogram: the track will be shown as a histogram line which used for the statistical data.
Gene: the track will be show as layered gene.
File FormatCurrently only GFF3 format supported
