This track shows known protein-coding genes from organisms other than $organism, taken from mRNA reference sequences compiled at LocusLink. Coding exons are represented by blocks connected by horizontal lines representing introns. The 5' and 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) are displayed as thinner blocks on the leading and trailing ends of the aligning regions. In full display mode, arrowheads on the connecting intron lines indicate the direction of transcription.
The mRNAs are aligned against the $organism genome using the blat program. When a single mRNA aligns in multiple places, only the best alignments that also have at least 94% sequence identity are kept.
The track filter can be used to configure the labeling of the features within the track. By default, items are labeled by gene name. Click the appropriate Label option to display the accession name instead of the gene name, show both the gene and accession names, or turn off the label completely. After you have made your selection, click Submit to return to the tracks display page.
This track is produced at UCSC from mRNA sequence data generated by scientists worldwide and curated by the NCBI RefSeq project.
