If a user is looking for human or mouse genome updates, point them to:
*[http://www.genomereference.org http://www.genomereference.org]
To report errors in the human or mouse assemblies:
*[http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/genome/assembly/grc/ReportAnIssue.shtml Report a Genome Issue]
For users looking for help identifying effects of their novel SNPs, send them to (thanks Angie):
*[http://gvs.gs.washington.edu/SeattleSeqAnnotation/ SeattleSeqAnnotation]
 
''I have a list of Gene Symbols and I would like to get corresponding sequences for them.''

Sharing custom tracks
*[https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2010-April/022110.html sessions vs. constructing URLs, with or without using big* tracks]
 
''Help me create a Custom Track''
*''...with shades of grey.''

''Is there a size limit for custom tracks?''
*[http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2007-April/013324.html FW: custom track 100 MB size limit? (resend after partial bounce)]
 
''How do I find non-protein-coding genes?''
*[http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2007-October/014924.html tRNA genes and not coding regions for tRNA related proteins?]
*[http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2008-January/015286.html question: non-protein coding genes]
 
''I have a list of identifiers, how do I find the coordinates?''
*[http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2007-May/013674.html physical positions of multiple genes]
 
''Format of chain, chainLink and net tables''
*[http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2006-February/009869.html Question on net format]
 
''How do I get a table of restriction enzymes?''
*[http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2006-May/010707.html Restriction enzyme track not on table browser?]
Note that the utility findCutters is better than oligoMatch: oligoMatch has no good way of finding AsuI (G'GnC_C).  It's possible
but it would need to be run four times: GGACC, GGCCC, GGGCC, GGTCC and the output combined.  findCutters does it all in one command.
 
''Go''

''How do I find telomeres and centromeres?''
