Hello Anna, You are correct - the human sequences have been moved out of the panTro2 RefSeq track and into the Other RefSeq track.
Currently, there is no way to filter for only human sequences in the track controls for the Other RefSeq track in the browser, although adding in a species filter to the CGI is being discussed. For now, the best solution is to simply open both tracks and note the species name that is next to the gene name when viewing the Other RefSeq track. The change was made for two reasons 1) many user requests to make the RefSeq track consistent with all of the other RefSeq tracks (to contain native sequences only - chimp in this case) and 2) there are more chimp RefSeq available now than there were when the combined chimp-human track was created. We apologize for the inconvenience this this change has caused you, Jennifer --------------------------------- Jennifer Jackson UCSC Genome Informatics Group http://genome.ucsc.edu/ On 5/5/10 4:31 AM, Anna Wetterbom wrote: > Hi! > There used to be a track in the chimpanzee browser containing both > human and chimpanzee ReSeq genes.
