# Visualizing gene expression in Chromosome view From the DESeq2 task report, we can browse to any gene in the Chromosome view. * Click ![Chromosome icon](https://1384254481-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FJVEESmJAPppJ3ijFq5aR%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-04cd38e5536f0be01f906e1ab67bbe9d1f7c6980%2Fchromosome-icon.png?alt=media) in the KLHDC7B row to open Chromosome view (Figure 1)

A new tab will open showing KLHDC7B in the Chromosome view (Figure 2).

Chromosome View shows reference genome, annotation, and data set information together aligned at genomic coordinates. Each track has Configure track ![Configure track icon](https://1384254481-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FJVEESmJAPppJ3ijFq5aR%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-d13c284a59559aca016b66b849e856b87e7b9f48%2Fconfigure-track-icon.png?alt=media) and Move track ![Move track icon](https://1384254481-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FJVEESmJAPppJ3ijFq5aR%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-2546c895805caa1e366d02cbdeced29198c47adf%2Fmove-track-icon.png?alt=media) buttons that can be used to modify each track. The top track shows average number of total count normalized reads for each of the three treatment groups in a stacked histogram. The second track shows the Ensembl annotation. We can add tracks from any data node using Select Tracks. * Click **Select tracks** A pop-up dialog showing the pipeline allows us to choose which data to display as tracks in Chromosome view (Figure 3).

* Click **Reads pileup** under Aligned reads on the left-hand side of the dialog * Click **Display selection** to make the change The reads pileup track is now included (Figure 4).
