Hi Kathleen,

You will first need to retrieve UCSC IDs from the hg19.knownToGnfAtlas2 
table, then use hg19.kgXref to retrieve the corresponding gene names. I 
suggest you do this using the Table Browser. Make the following selections:

table: knownToGnfAtlas2
output format: selected fields from primary and related tables

Click 'get ouput'. On the following page, select the 'name' and 'value' 
fields, scroll down and select 'hg19 kgXref' and click 'Allow Selection 
 From Checked Tables'. From here, you can select 'geneSymbol' then click 
'get output'.

I hope this helps. Please contact us again at [email protected] if you 
have any further questions.
