Hello,

Below is the help for the Table browser. It includes a query for a search by an 
identifier and also help for linking tables in the output.

Since your sequence is a RefSeq, then start with the refGene table, paste in 
your identifiers, and link in other data as desired in the output (selected 
fields from primary and related tables). You can find out which tables are 
related by using the "schema" link from either the track description page or 
from the Table browser. The data format and common keys are noted. All mySQL 
tables are available in the Downloads are under the assembly in the 
?"Annotation Database" link. Or, the ftp location goldenPath/<db>/database. A 
table name is the same as a file name, with .txt.gz added for the data and .sql 
added for the schema.

Key tables: refGene, kgXref, kgAlias, refLink

And this similar question may be have some pointers helpful for understanding 
the data and for investigating any missing data points.

Good luck,
