Random Intervals

This tool currently only works with ENCODE data from genome builds hg16 or hg17.


Note: If you do not wish to mask a set of intervals, change the Use Mask option to No, this option will override any Mask files selected.


Syntax

  • Any - all overlaps are allowed.
  • None - no overlapping regions are allowed.
