Hello Tar,

Please see this previously answered mailing list question:

https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2011-November/027780.html

Basically you will want to use our blastTab tables (in this case the 
mmBlastTab table) which maps UCSC genes identifiers from one assembly to 
another. You will also need to use a linked table (kgXref) to convert 
your Uniprot identifiers to UCSC genes identifiers.

Note that Uniprot identifiers are equivalent to " SWISS-PROT protein 
Accession numbers" in the kgXref table, so begin by choosing that table 
(as outlined in the link above), then you will be able to paste in your 
Uniprot identifiers as a list.

Then choose "selected fields from primary and related tables" click "get 
output" and in the subsequent menu be sure to check the "mmBlastTab" 
table and "allow selection from checked tables". This will allow you to 
include fields from the mmBlastTab table in your output and you will 
want to include the query (human id) and target (mouse id) fields.

To convert the resulting list of mouse UCSC ids back to Uniprot you 
would need to use the kgXref a second time pasting in the list of UCSC 
ids and then selecting the "SWISS-PROT protein Accession numbers" field 
for your output.
