Hello, Cui. It sounds like the Table Browser might be useful in helping you obtain the information you are looking for.
In the Table Browser, first you want to select your primary table by setting the "group," "track" and "table" fields. You can always click the "describe table schema" button if you're not sure what information the tables contain. Next, you can specify the entire genome or a specific position with the "region" field or you can specify only certain identifiers by pasting or uploading a list in the "identifiers" field. In order to link data from your primary table to the data in other tables, you can change the "output format" field to "selected fields from primary and related tables." Then click the "get output" button which will bring you to a new screen that will allow you to check related tables and fields you would like included in your results. Note that if you're not interested in all the data contained in your primary table, you can merely uncheck the fields you are not interested in. You can use the table browser to explore the tables to determine which tables contain the specific data you are looking for. I hope this helps! Please contact us again at [email protected] if you have any further questions. --- Steve Heitner UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
