Hi Daily, You can create a custom track with your coordinates of interest in the genome browser and create a session containing that custom track. You can then access the session from the 'Sessions' tab and share the session URL with others.
For more about custom tracks see: http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTracksHelp.html#CustomTracks http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQcustom.html For more about sessions see: http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTracksHelp.html#Sessions http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgSessionHelp.html I hope this is helpful. Please contact the mail list ([email protected]) again if you have any further questions.
