I downloaded a table of refseq genes from the UCSC Table Browser using this
parameters:
Genome: human
•Assembly: Mar 2006
•Group: genes and gene prediction tracks
•Track: RefSeq Genes
•Table: refGene
I had downloaded the genes table in January 2009. I had not saved the
information about exon boundaries in the table at that time. I entered the same
parameters and downloaded the table again today to include the exon boundaries
information. I noticed that some of the genes have a different TSS start and
end compared to the genes in the table from January 2009. Please can you
explain why this is so. I used the March 20006 assembly for both the downloads.
Example (gene ABHD14B):
entry from table downloaded in Jan 2009:
#name chrom strand txStart txEnd name2
NM_032750 chr3 - 51977570 51983070 ABHD14B
entry from table downloaded today:
#name chrom strand txStart txEnd name2
NM_032750 chr3 - 51977566 51983686 ABHD14B
