Hi Anton,

You have indeed found a bug.  We will be fixing it, but I don't have an 
estimate of when it will be done.  In the meantime, you can get 
information on the unaligned mRNAs directly from Genbank:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/

(for instance, NR_031880 goes to: 
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/297207096)

These Genbank pages display all of the data that would have been 
displayed when you clicked the link, plus more.

I also suggest turning on the "miRNA" track.  All of the names of miRNAs 
in the rat (rn4) track are in the format: rno-mir-#.  If you search for 
"rno-mir-138" in the position/search box, you should get two hits under 
"MicroRNAs from miRBase".  I will make a suggestion to our developers to 
make those results appear when search terms such as "mir-138" are entered.

I hope this helps.  If you have further questions, please feel free to 
contact the mailing list again at [email protected].
