Strand orientation track, shows annotation of human alpha satellite higher-order repeats, suprachromosomal families and pericentromeric monomer layers (combined HOR/SF track) in T2T CHM13 human genome assembly release v1.1 with colors indicating just the orientation of alpha satellite (blue for direct and red for reverse orientation).
Annotation tables are shown at: How_to_read_AS_annotation
Based on the phylogenetic and genomic analysis of alpha satellites in hg38 genome assembly. Alpha satellite monomer sequences were established as HMM profiles and processed by HMMER to create a monomer-by-monomer annotation track for UCSC Genome Browser. The colors for the monomers were assigned according to the monomer’s strand orientation.
