Hello, Hao,
You can use the Table Browser to get this relationship.
set for hg19:
group: Genes and Gene Predictions
track: refSeq Genes
identifiers: [paste list]
NM_001130986
output format: selected fields from primary and related tables
[get output]
check name, chrom, chromStart, chromEnd or whatever you want
in Linked Tables section:
check kgXref [Allow Selection From check Tables]
in hg19.kgXref:
check geneSymbol [get output]
result:
#hg19.refGene.name hg19.refGene.chrom hg19.refGene.txStart
hg19.refGene.txEnd hg19.kgXref.geneSymbol
NM_001130986 chr2 71693831 71913893 DYSF
best regards,
