Hi Kim, I think what you're referring to as the "gene name" we call the "gene description", which is maybe why you couldn't find it. You can get the description from the kgXref table. In the table browser, for output format, select "selected fields from primary and related tables".
When you click get output you'll be take to a screen where you can add tables to your query under the Linked Tables list. Check off kgXref and click allow selection from checked tables (very bottom). Now you can select the description field from kgXref and submit your query. Please let us know if you have any additional questions: [email protected] - Greg Roe UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group On 8/15/11 6:35 AM, Kim Spradling wrote: > Good Morning, > > I would like to add the full gene names to a list of mRNA accession numbers > and official gene symbols.
