Hi Alona,

Sorry for the delayed response. There are a few ways to get this 
sequence. You can use the table browser to get all the rows from the MSA 
by selecting the Conservation track from the Comparative Genomics group, 
then select the relevant multiz table (multiz46way on hg19). The table 
browser lets you specify a region of interest in the "position" field. 
There's no way to filter out certain species using this mechanism.

Another way is to use the Conservation track controls to only show the 
species that you are interested in (you can get to the track controls by 
clicking on the title of the track, "Conservation", above the display 
selection pull-down menu). Once you have the species you are interested 
in, you can click on the alignment and copy/paste the MSA information 
off the resulting detail page.

A third way is available if your sequence is within the coding sequence 
of a gene. To use this mechanism, choose your gene track (e.g. UCSC 
genes), set your region of interest, then choose "CDS FASTA from 
multiple alignment" in the output format pull down, then hit Submit. The 
next page that comes up will allow you to restrict the species that are 
output, as well as the formatting of the nucleotides.

Keep in mind that restricting the display to only certain species does 
/not/ realign the data.
