<p>You'll need BAM or bigWig files for each of the tracks. If you can't find any you'll have to make them yourself from public fastq files. The fastq files can be obtained from ENA, SRA, or any of the other standard databases.</p>

<p>You can use <a href="http://screen.encodeproject.org" rel="nofollow noreferrer">screen.encodeproject.org</a></p>
<p>It collected a lot of data from multiple cell lines or tissues. And you can export tracks to UCSC browser or other browsers.</p>

<p>Like others have mentioned, these plots come from BAM, BED, and BigWig files.
Those files contain the data that you can give to tools like the <a href="https://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgGateway" rel="nofollow noreferrer">UCSC Genome Browser</a>, <a href="https://igv.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">IGV</a>,  <a href="http://higlass.io/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">HiGlass</a>/<a href="https://gosling.js.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Gosling</a>, or other bioinformatics visualization software.</p>
<p>For the specific cell line you mention, you'll have to find the relevant RNA-seq and ChIP-seq data from some data repository, like CCLE, ENA, SRA, or GEO.
You may be to put in some work converting available files to one of these compatible formats before plotting them.</p>

<p>I'm trying to make a plot showing genome tracks of specific genes in specific cell-lines of RNA-seq and Chip-seq data. </p>

<p>It should look something like this <a href="https://i.sstatic.net/sR04J.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/sR04J.png" alt="genome tracks"></a>I have recently seen this <a href="https://encode.genemo.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">encode</a>, but in this I didn't find any MDAMB231 cell-lines.</p>

<p>May I know how to make such plots.</p>

<p>I got the Counts data from CCLE portal.</p>

I'm trying to make a plot showing genome tracks of specific genes in specific cell-lines of RNA-seq and Chip-seq data. 
It should look something like this I have recently seen this encode, but in this I didn't find any MDAMB231 cell-lines.
May I know how to make such plots.

You can use [screen.encodeproject.org](http://screen.encodeproject.org)

It collected a lot of data from multiple cell lines or tissues. And you can export tracks to UCSC browser or other browsers.

Like others have mentioned, these plots come from BAM, BED, and BigWig files.
Those files contain the data that you can give to tools like the [UCSC Genome Browser](https://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgGateway), [IGV](https://igv.org/), [HiGlass](http://higlass.io/)/[Gosling](https://gosling.js.org/), or other bioinformatics visualization software.

For the specific cell line you mention, you'll have to find the relevant RNA-seq and ChIP-seq data from some data repository, like CCLE, ENA, SRA, or GEO.
