Hello,

I would not be able to get the Entrez ID from GenBanl ID, it does not matter
whichever table I tried to combine (mm9.kgXref.refseq (via gbCdnaInfo.acc);
mm9.refGene.name (via gbCdnaInfo.acc); mm9.refLink.mrnaAcc (via
gbCdnaInfo.acc)). The rest of columns are always "n/a".

Do you know why? Thanks!!

===============

#mm9.gbCdnaInfo.acc     mm9.gbCdnaInfo.geneName mm9.geneName.id
mm9.geneName.name       mm9.refLink.geneName    mm9.refLink.locusLinkId

Hello -

Locus Link IDs have been retired at NCBI. They have been replaced with 
Entrez Genes. We retain the older table names/labels as LocusLink in our 
database for convenience reasons, but the content is Entrez.

Thanks,
Jennifer
