Hi,

I am trying to look for regions that are conserved in the human genome. I
see several options. I am trying to interpret the scores that come with each
option used. For eg,
 I used the 44-species alignement and this is an example output

1347    chr10   100003294       100003484       28916644        8575806112      
0.7316
1347    chr10   100003484       100003547       28916644        8575826654      
0.727194
1347    chr10   100003547       100003576       28916644        8575836655      
0.36254
1347    chr10   100003576       100003594       28916644        8575846077      
0.439916
1347    chr10   100003594       100003625       28916644        8575853175      
0.465818
1347    chr10   100003625       100003672       28916644        8575860760      
0.487689

1347    chr10   100003672       100003717       28916644        8575869528      
0.513651

The last column is the overall score. CAn you give me a rough rule of
thumb as to how to interpret these scores.
I probably need to read about Phastcons and PhyloP to get a better
understanding of what the different conservation tracks are, but if
you can give me some idea about the 44-way alignment,
I will appreciate it.

Many thanks.

Best,
