Thanks for the information!

One more question: After I downloaded the table with selecting a couple fields, 
e.g. Refseq and geneSymbol, I noticed that there are a lot of blanks in Refseq 
column and on Chromosome column, there are chr6 and chr6_apd_hap1 with the same 
refseq ID, but totally different start positions . What I want are the unique 
Gene ID, Chrom, strand, start position of genes and end position of genes. 
Could you please explain those table for me. Should I consider  chr6 and 
chr6_apd_hap1 the same since they have the same refseq IDs.

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:

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. Would you please let me know where 
I can get this information from Genome Browser?



Thanks for the help,
