Many publications estimate the number of moue genes to be around 25,000-30,000, which is about the number we show in the Genome Browser (in the UCSC Genes and RefSeq Genes tracks, at least). > QUESTION2 > > is it possible that within one mouse DMit locus that all above > (intron, exons, coding exon, exon plus, 5'UTR, 3'UTR, > whole gene) occur? I ask because this is what the UCSC analysis > showed I took a brief look at the STS Markers track alongside the UCSC Genes track, and the STS Markers generally looked much smaller than the genes. Each DMit locus covering an entire gene seems like a dubious result. -- Brooke Rhead UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
