Hi Hong, Thanks for the feedback. Good to know the scientific notation is not in the data.
There are a few things to check: 1) Are you loading data through the custom track submission form? The error you sent before looked like a regular "load track" error for users with a mirror. If you want to load as a custom track, with the custom track headers, you must use the custom track submission form. 2) There are a few problems with the track line. Clearing these up will likely help. autoScale="off" (remove the "") graphType="bar" (remove the "") http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgWiggleTrackHelp.html http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/wiggle.html (scroll to "Data Values" http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTracksHelp.html#TRACK http://hgwdev.cse.ucsc.edu/~kent/src/unzipped/hg/makeDb/trackDb/ (see sections THE TYPE FIELD, #14 and OTHER FIELDS). 3) Using an alternate data format would likely be much better given the data size. Track line attributes for .wig also work for .bigWig. The ".wig" data type is being retired anyway - the recommended replacement is bigWig. See this document for the graphing data types including many links to associated help docs: http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/Selecting_a_graphing_track_data_format http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/bigWig.html Conversion program wigToBigWig in the kent source tree or available via ftp pre-compiled here (for some systems): http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/admin/exe/ Hopefully this is helpful.
