If you are using versions dbSNP 153 and above, the data are formatted as bigBed files instead of
being stored as a MariaDb table. For very large queries, this may cause the Table Browser to timeout
before the query finishes as dbSNP has grown to include over 700 million variants. If you find that
your Table Browser query timesout for your list of rsIDs, you can use the
bigBedNamedItems
command-line tool to extract the rsID coordinates directly from the
bigBed file instead of using the Table Browser.
More information and examples using the
bigBedNamedItems
utility can be found on the following
FAQ entry. As a reminder, you can run any Kent command-line tool
without arguments to get the usage statement.
Several utilities for working with bigBed-formatted binary files can be downloaded here. Run a utility with no arguments to see a brief description of the utility and its options.

The initial release of a new genome assembly typically contains a small subset of core annotation tracks. New tracks are added as they are generated. In many cases, our annotation tracks are contributed by scientists not affiliated with UCSC who must first obtain the sequence, repeatmasked data, etc. before they can produce their tracks. If you have need of an annotation that has not appeared on an assembly within a month or so of its release, feel free to send an inquiry to genome@soe.ucsc.edu.
