Hello Sridhar,

The Gene Sorter doesn't have a batch mode per se, but you will likely be 
able to accomplish what you need using the "Filter" option. To do this, 
go to the Gene Sorter (link is in the blue bar at the top of the page) 
and choose the assembly you wish to use.

To facilitate searching on multiple terms, the Gene Sorter provides the 
option to paste in or upload a list of search terms.  To paste in a list 
of gene names, click the filter's Paste List button in the Filter 
controls for the "Name - Gene Name/Select Gene" column. Then paste or 
type the list of gene names into the text box. Terms must be separated 
by a space, a tab, or be entered on separate lines, and may not include 
wildcards. When you have completed the list, click the Submit button to 
return to the main Filter page. The file upload utility - accessed via 
the Upload List button - has a similar functionality. You could also hit 
the output "text" button at the top of the page to get the list in text 
format.

The Gene Sorter is highly configurable, allowing you to fine-tune the 
display to show just the genes and data columns in which you're 
interested in an order that best suits your research needs. Most of the 
configuration is controlled through settings on the Configuration page, 
accessed via the configure button at the top of the Gene Sorter page.

I hope that this method works for you. Please don't hesitate to contact 
us again if you require further assistance.

Regards,
