Hi! I'm interested in exploring the relationship of certain genes' expression and DNaseI hypersensitivity of their promoter regions. I would like to correlate hypersensitivity data with measures of gene activity such as RNA-seq data. I'm using the UCSC genome browser with ENCODE data but I have some problems. I can't seem to find data with comparable signal values in the Table Browser - the formats are such that the correlate -function can't be used. I can get signal peak values for DNaseI hypersensitivity but the RNA-seq tables just describe sequence reads. I'd be grateful for any advice on how to proceed.

ENCODE and correlation are antonyms. I've heard from several people that the ENCODE data cannot be compared between different experiments.
