SYMBOL exon N — e.g. TP53 exon 5 or NM_000546 exon 5SYMBOL:e.N — compact notation from the
VICC Gene Fusion Specification,
e.g. TP53:e.5 or NM_000546:e.5. Optionally add an intronic offset:
SYMBOL:e.N+offset navigates offset bases past the 3’ end of the exon
(into the downstream intron), and SYMBOL:e.N-offset navigates offset bases
before the 5’ start (into the upstream intron). Useful for splice site inspection:
BRCA2:e.10+2 lands 2 bp into the intron after exon 10.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”.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.
| Query | Genome Browser Response |
|---|---|
| chr7 | Displays all of chromosome 7 |
| chr3:1-1000000 | Displays the first million bases of chromosome 3, counting from the p-arm telomere |
