[Genome] UCSC IDs

[Kayla Smith]

Hello Rachel,

The UCSC IDs and the GenBank IDs are not the same thing.  You will find 
useful correspondences in the tables hg18.kgXref and hg18.knownToRefSeq

Those tables can be downloaded here:

http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg18/database/

The details page for the Known Genes track also has some information:
http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?g=knownGene

I hope this information is helpful to you.  Please don't hesitate to 
contact us again if you require further assistance.
