Hi Da Li,

The Ensembl Genes track has annotations for these genes on the 
mitochondrial chromosome.  Navigate to the mitochondrial chromosome by 
entering "chrM" in the position/search box.  Then, scroll to the "Genes 
and Gene Prediction Tracks" and change the Ensembl Genes track to "pack" 
or "full."

The 12S mitochondrial rRNA gene is ENST00000389680, a.k.a. J01415.24, at 
chrM:648-1,601.  The tRNAGlu(UUC) gene is ENST00000387459, a.k.a. 
J01415.21, at chrM:14,674-14,742.  (The gene names for chrM in this 
track are not obvious; I found these by first getting position 
information from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_MT_(human)#Genes.)

One thing you should be aware of is that UCSC uses a slightly different 
mitochondrial chromosome than Ensembl.  This is described on the hg19 
description page 
(http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgGateway?org=Human&db=hg19):

"Note on chrM
Since the release of the UCSC hg19 assembly, the Homo sapiens 
mitochondrion sequence (represented as "chrM" in the Genome Browser) has 
been replaced in GenBank with the record NC_012920. We have not replaced 
the original sequence, NC_001807, in the hg19 Genome Browser. We plan to 
use the Revised Cambridge Reference Sequence (rCRS) in the next human 
assembly release."

The two mitochondrial sequences differ by a few bases.  We are in the 
process of updating the Ensembl Genes track for chrM on hg19 so that 
their annotations (which are given for NC_012920) appear in the correct 
corresponding locations on NC_001807 in our browser.  The updated track 
is currently on our preview server, http://genome-preview.ucsc.edu/. 
You will be able to tell when the track has been updated on the regular 
site by looking at the "data last updated" line that is visible when you 
click on an item in the track.

I hope this information is helpful.  If you have further questions, 
please contact us again at [email protected].
