Hi Archie, The Ensembl Gene's track is based on a particular Ensembl release. This can be seen in the browser when a particular entry from the track is clicked into, on the details page:
hg18 -> Ensembl 54 hg19 -> Ensembl 58 Between these two releases there were changes at Ensembl that affected how the data was organized. There have been deletions as well as additions. For details of UCSC's processing, please see these makedocs (either in a copy of the kent source tree or here online) and search for "ensGene": hg18 makedoc: http://hgwdev.cse.ucsc.edu/~kent/src/unzipped/hg/makeDb/doc/hg18.txt hg19 is contained in this global makedoc: http://hgwdev.cse.ucsc.edu/~kent/src/unzipped/hg/makeDb/doc/makeEnsembl.txt I hope this information is helpful, Regards, Jen UCSC Genome Browser Support On 7/19/10 2:16 PM, Archie Russell wrote: > Hi guys > > Can you tell me what goes into the ensGtp file in downloads?
