Dear Dr Jackson,

Thank you for your reply! I have read your Email 3 times, but I don't sure
understand you completely.

>From your letter, can I to say if the region(chr3:173,402,247-173,402,431)
hasn't EL584176, only other 14 intronic ESTs, and MER53 (
chr3:173402247-173402431) will intersect no intronic ESTs with Table
Browser? Is this all right?

That is may be a naive question ? But I nearly don't sure.

Thank you again !

Best regards,

Chuangye
