Hi,

I have a long list of RefSeq ID's, it is possible to convert all these into gene names in UCSC?

My list looks like this:

NM_008911

NM_001253390

NM_001253391

NR_045801

NM_172877

NM_001113424

NM_001278161

NM_145135

NM_001172070

NM_001172071

NM_027838

NM_001172069

NM_001172068

Hi Lasse,

You can retrieve this information from the Table Browser
(http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables). After selecting a clade,
genome, and assembly of your choice, set the following:

group: Genes and Gene Prediction Tracks
track: RefSeq Genes
table: refGene
region: genome
identifiers: paste in or upload the list of your RefSeq IDs
output format: selected fields from primary and related tables
output file: enter a file name to save your results to a file, or leave
blank to display results in the browser

Click 'get output'. On the following page, select the appropriate fields
('name2' for the gene name) then click 'get output'.

For more information on how to use the Table Browser, please refer to
our help pages:
http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTablesHelp.html

If you have any further questions, please reply to gen...@soe.ucsc.edu.
All messages sent to that address are archived on a publicly-accessible
