Hello again,
Thank you for your answers, they were very helpful. If you don't mind,
I know have a new question for you.
How are the tracks "Known Genes", "RefSeq Genes", and "Other RefSeq"
related to each other? I noticed that there are many RefSeq Genes in
the KnownGenes table (which makes sense). However, I also noticed that
the RefSeq entries in the KnownGene track do not always correspond to
the entries in the RefSeq table!! Here is an example from hg17:
Known Genes track:
NM_004869 chr18 - 59207406 59240673 59209187
59240472 11
59207406,59211621,59215246,59217454,59218260,59218759,59221919,59225644,59228502,59229679,59240445,
59209289,59211762,59215466,59217536,59218409,59218916,59222039,59225712,59228659,59229791,59240673,
VPS4B_HUMAN R8768
RefSeq Genes track:
NM_004869 chr18 - 59207406 59240732 59209187
59240472 11
59207406,59211621,59215246,59217454,59218260,59218759,59221919,59225644,59228502,59229679,59240445,
59209289,59211762,59215466,59217536,59218409,59218916,59222039,59225712,59228659,59229791,59240732,
Notice that they are not completely the same!!! I would expect them to
be the same except for the "VPS4B_HUMAN R8768" appended to the end of
the known gene.
Thanks,
Todd
