[Genome] Stumped

To Whom It May Concern:

 

I have a question and I don't know if you might be able to help me out.
I am trying to find homologies between pseudoautosomal-region genes on
the X chromosome to the cat.  I'm using "Cat Chained Alignments" but I
am concerned I don't see a chromosomal position for the scaffolds that
are aligning.  I would hope the homologs on the cat are located on the
cat's X chromosome - but I can't seem to find a chromosome position.
How can I determine the chromosomal position on the segments that are
aligning to the human X chromosome gene?  For example, I am aligned CD99
using the Cat Chained Alignment (I CAT Blat'ed the human CD99 sequence
to get a quantitative sense of its alignment) - but how do I know where
it's located?  My assumption is that it should be on the cat's X as
well.

 

I hope you understand the problem.  If you can offer any assistance I
would be very grateful!

 

Thank you for your time,

 

Kateri
