1. Thanks for helping me to use the UCSC genomics website to find the following mouse DMIT locus functional groups (3UTR, 5UTR, coding exon, exon plus, intron, whole gene).
2. A few questions and some assumptions: 2a. I assumed that each mouse DMIT locus would occur within only ONE of the functional groups (3UTR or 5 UTR or coding exon or exon plus or intron or whole gene). 2b. Instead, the UCSC genomics website reports that a mouse DMIT locus can cover more than one functional group. Is this correct? 2c. Though much of the mouse genome lacks genes, I was expecting for ca. 7500 mouse DMIT loci to have more DMIT loci overlapping genes. Instead, only 80 DMIT overlap "whole genes". Is this correct? 3. Therefore I assume that the remainder of the DMIT loci occur within "intergenic regions". Is this correct? 4. Thanks for helping me to interpret the implications of the UCSC data analyses.
