Hi,

I cannot get the webserver to accept any combination of gene names (for either the binding locations or differentially expressed genes).  I used the DAVID tool linked by the web server to convert to Official_Gene_Symbol, which works perfectly according to DAVID. 

Nevertheless, the webserver rejects the data as containing over 20% of genes whose names do not match up with known gene symbols.  The problem persists even if I try having DAVID convert my gene lists into RefSeq MRNAs.

What should I do?

Dear Matt,

I guess you may not choose the proper species.
If it is still not working after you make sure the species is correct, could you please post several example gene identifiers here, so that I can see what is the problem.

Best,
Jing
