Hello Kavita,

We are about to release a new build of UCSC Genes, which you can see 
right now on our preview website: http://genome-preview.ucsc.edu/. (Be 
aware that in general there is a lot of untested and experimental data 
on the preview site.)

With this build, we have made improvements to our naming scheme so that 
the kgXref geneSymbol and description columns for non-RefSeq transcripts 
come from the overlapping RefSeq annotation, if there is one.  It looks 
like your example below (and many others) have improved descriptions in 
the new build.

If you have further questions, please contact us again at 
[email protected].
