Exon numbering is 1-based and follows transcript order (exon 1 is the 5′ exon). Genes are looked up in order: MANE, GENCODE/UCSC (knownGene), -all RefSeq, then historical RefSeq. To jump to a codon instead, right-click -any transcript in the browser and select “Zoom to codon”.

+all RefSeq, then historical RefSeq. To jump to a codon instead, just enter it +after the gene, e.g. "BRAF 600", use the HGVS notation (see below) or +right-click any transcript in the browser and select “Zoom to +codon”.

Sample queries

Below is a list of examples that might be used to query the Genome Browser. Note that not every query listed here will produce a result in every assembly. The list serves only to illustrate the different types of queries that can be performed.
