Hi,

I am little confused with the data in knownGene in the Human section. As far as 
I know, it has "Transcription start & end position" and "Coding region start & 
end" information for an entry at column number 4, 5, 6, and 7 respectively.

Check out the following two entries, why does the Coding region start and end 
(columns 6 & 7) are identical, despite the fact that the uc002ybr just has one 
exon (it could be a non-coding UTR) and the uc010gjw entry has 5 exons (column 
8).


[pme...@portal]$ grep "uc002ybr" knownGene.txt
uc002ybr.1      chr20   +       60513179        60515672        60513179        
60513179        1       60513179,       60515672,             uc002ybr.1

[pme...@portal]$ grep "uc010gjw" knownGene.txt
uc010gjw.1      chr20   +       58713536        59228976        58713536        
58713536        5       58713536,58729462,58755892,58994077,59225766, 
58713700,58729557,58755971,58994213,59228976,           uc010gjw.1


I may be missing something. I will appreciate any help.

Thanks,
