Track Gene Text
The Track Gene Text process creates a settings ( .sas ) file from a text file that defines a display track for a set of genes to be added to JMP Genomics statistical results like plots of -log 10 ( p-values ) along chromosome . You can download the text file from sources like the Table Browser of the UCSC Genome Browser and use it as input to this process. The resulting settings file can then be selected as a track file for embellishing graphics with depictions of genes.
What do I need?
A single .txt input file, which contains track information, is required . The hg18_knownGene.txt file serves as an example, and is shown below. This file, which was downloaded from the UCSC Table Browser to the JMP Genomics Sample Data\UCSC\Gene directory, is shipped with JMP Genomics.
The input file must have certain columns in order to properly define the genes. Columns must list:
The file must meet the following requirements:
it is tab delimited,

Output/Results
Running the Track Gene Text process results in the generation of the TrackGeneText_UCSC_hg18_known_Genes.sas settings file, whose path is displayed in a JMP Genomics Message window.

This file can be used with any JMP Genomics process having a Tracks tab.
