Hello,

I am using liftover to convert hg18 to mm8 using 30bp interval. 
everything worked out nicely. But when I convert the output file back to 
human coordinate (mm8 coordinate to hg18) using the same method, there 
are "unmapped" regions. and when I do it again (now output from the 
second conversion - hg18 to mm8), there are still unmapped regions.

Why is this? I was expecting that the mm8 to hg18 will give me back my 
original input coordinate, but instead i lose some information. Isn't 
there a one to one coordinate conversion?

Thanks,
Jiahao
