Hello, The Table Browser is a useful tool for this type of query. The general method would be to:
1) Set the clade, genome, and assembly for the species/release of interest 2) Set group=Gene and Gene predictions 3) Set track=UCSC Genes or other gene prediction track 4) Using default table, click on "describe table schema" to understand the contents (alignment coordinates, transcription/coding regions, linked tables, track data contents/methods/credits), then go back to query page 5) Set region=chromosome coordinates (to convert from band/chrom format, enter name such as "3p21" and click on "lookup") 6) select output format and submit Table Browser: http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables (top paragraph includes help/tutorial links).
