Dear UCSC GenomeBrowser staff:

I wanted to map probe sequences from U133plus2 chip to human genome.

I downloaded all chromosomes in FASTA format from ncbi FTP site:

For example:
hs_ref_GRCh37_chrX.fa.gz

I used BLAST to map the probe sequence to fasta file mentioned above.
I used strict conditions that I wanted only 100% identical hit.

One such probe hit:
probe:HG-U133_Plus_2:208763_s_at:318:797       Homo sapiens chromosome
X genomic contig, GRCh37 reference primary assembly 25   25 1
30253299  30253323


when I try to find chrX:30253299-30253323, the position does not map
to the location it should have pointed.
the desired position is :

000000001 gggagtattgactggtcccttacct 000000025
<<<<<<<<< ||||||||||||||||||||||||| <<<<<<<<<
106957015 gggagtattgactggtcccttacct 106956991


My question:
Although NCBI and UCSC are same reference genomes, why am I having
different position. Is this because I am searching against a contig as
opposed to a full chromosome.

Please help me.
thanks
Adrian
