Hi Pardis,

Sorry for my delay in response!  I'm glad you find the track useful.
The method itself has never been published, so I think the best way to
go would be to cite one of the genome browser papers, and maybe add in
transfac too if you have room.  Anyone else can feel free to chime in
here though!

Matt
