Hello Lax,

If I look at the record for NM_009717 in our tables I see all the same 
information you give below, and if I look at this item in the browser I 
do not see evidence for 3 exons, so it would seem that your command is 
working fine.

The exons for putative noncoding genes and untranslated regions are  
represented by relatively thin blocks, while those for coding open 
reading frames are thicker. In your example, the first "exon" 
(chr6:55627812-55629665) region incorporates the thin and thick areas in 
the left most block and the second "exon" (chr6:55630957-55631257) is 
the second block on the right.

Hopefully this information was helpful and answers your question. If you 
have further questions or require clarification feel free to contact the 
mailing list at [email protected].

Best regards,
