## Isochore boundaries for Mus musculus (build mm9).

### Description

Isochore boundaries for Mus musculus (build mm9). Isochores are large segments of the genome such that within-segment variability in GC content is substantially lower than between-segment variability. These isochores are computationally predicted by IsoFinder (see below).

### Usage

    data(isochores.mm8)

### Format

A data frame with 32894 observations on the following 4 variables.

`Begin`
  isochore starts.
`End`
  isochore ends.
`GC`
  GC content in isochore.
`chromosome`
  chromosome identifier.
