Hi

I am having problems matching a sequence listed in a MAF alignment (hg18 
44way multiz) back to the genome of the species. I have this line from 
the Armadillo in the alignment:
s dasNov2.scaffold_2538               68705 33 -    225932 
ATCTACTC----------T-TTTACCCATCCCTCCAAAAAGCCT

I have obtained the dasNov2 genome assembly from 
ftp://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/gbdb/dasNov2/dasNov2.2bit and converted it 
back to fasta using the utilities from the BLAT suite.

When I try to extract the particular sequence now using fastacmd, I end 
up with a sequence containing just Ns.
fastacmd -d dasNov2.fa -s scaffold_2538 -L 68705,68738 -S2
 >lcl|scaffold_2538:68705-68738 No definition line found
NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Any ideas what went wrong?

Cheers,
Andreas
