_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     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).

_U_s_a_g_e:

     data(isochores.mm8)

_F_o_r_m_a_t:

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

     '_B_e_g_i_n' isochore starts. 

     '_E_n_d' isochore ends. 

     '_G_C' GC content in isochore. 

     '_c_h_r_o_m_o_s_o_m_e' chromosome identifier.
