Hi Lili, You're on the right track. If the table you're interested in doesn't show gene names, for the output format in the Table Browser choose "selected fields from primary and related tables". Then you'll need to select a table that will have the gene name. For example, if you're using UCSC Genes (or RefSeq Genes), select the geneSymbol field from the kgXref table (along with the fields from the primary table you want) and get output.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions: [email protected] - Greg Roe UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group On 11/21/11 11:37 AM, Lili Li wrote: > Hi, > > I am interested in getting gene annotation file from Genome Browser, but when > I went to Table browser and get output from there(track in text format), the > output file didn't give me unique gene IDs.
