Associating FISH-mapped BACs with genes. Schematic view of FISH-mapped BACs from 1p36.33 near the PITSLRE kinase genes (UCSC Genome Browser, June 2002 freeze). Note that a single BAC can encompass one or more genes. In MatchMiner, the FISH-mapped BAC table from UCSC is imported, and chromosomal positions are read from the table for comparison with the transcriptional start positions of UCSC 'Known Genes'. If a transcriptional start is contained within the bounds of a BAC, that BAC is associated with the corresponding gene index. Thus, a BAC containing several genes will be associated with each of those genes.
