Hi there,
I search gene ALDOA with the following information:
chr16:29,971,992-29,989,236
The genome browser tell me this gene is on Chromosome 16 p11.2, and this is consitenct with the data in table cytoband.
However, if you check any NCBI web site (entrez, omim, etc, ), it will tell you this gene is on chromosome 16 band q22-24.
I'm not particular about the subband, the p and q make a big difference.
Could any one help me explain this?
Thanks in advance,
Mark Tong, Ph.D.
