Hi Tirza, Thanks for writing in. Seems there's an anomaly in the gene search code that can crop up when there are multiple matches and some "odd" chromosomes involved. We're working on a fix.
However try searching for MDC1 in the "position or search term" field. I think that will work for you. Just let us know if you have any additional questions [email protected] -- Greg Roe UCSC Genome Browser On 6/13/11 4:48 AM, Tirza Doniger wrote: > Hi, > > Searching for the gene MDC1 from the home page of the human genome hg19- > resulted in the genome location on chr6_cox_hap2. > Is it possible to search for the gene on chr6?
