AltExtron Database - Flat filesAltExtron is a computer generated high quality dataset of human transcript-confirmed constitutive and alternative exons and introns, and the delineated events. On this page links to the various data files are given - documentation of the file format can be found within the individual file links. As part of the general documentation illustrative diagrams of splice signals and alternative events are available. It is important to note that although there are three sections on this page, all data is an integral part of the AltExtron database as it can be queried through web interfaces (as mentioned in the access pages). Release 1 of the AltExtron database is available for nine species - all based on the gene data from the February 2003 release of EMBL. The tar files below unpack into the same files as listed in the next section in this page - also the documentation remains the same.
Prototype Human DataThe data files in this section point to the prototype human AltExtron database. The tar files (from the latest build) hyper-linked above for multiple organisms contain a similar organisation as that of below. The sequence and alignment data: The intron and exon flat and table files: The alternatively spliced introns and exons:
