IGB aims to be a truly integrated genome browser, meaning it can display data from a variety of diverse data sources, all merged into the same view. This includes data sets loaded from your computer, from URL sites, or from various public (and private) DAS, DAS2 and Quickload servers. IGB can also display data from many file types, including:

  • Short read alignments data, aka "next generation sequence data" (BAM format)
  • Standard annotations such as RefSeq annotations, provided by public repositories.
  • Alignments of Affymetrix probe sets to the genome, provided by the NetAffx group at Affymetrix (link.psl format).
  • Alignments of 454 dataESTs or mRNAs produced by blat (psl formats).
  • Tiling array graphs, from the TAS program from Affymetrix.
  • Copy number graphs from the CNAT program Affymetrix.
  • Data generated from other Affymetrix software tools, such as  GCOS, Expression Console and ExACT.
  • Annotation and graph files prepared by any method in any of the supported formats.
