Hi All, when i looked to mouse ensembl genes i found some genes located inside another gene ,for example , geneA on chromosome # starts @ 1000 pb and ends@3500 bp,geneB on same chromosome,same strand starts @1050 bp and ends @1650bp,is gene B a predicted gene? Is there any recommendation to use for instance refseg genes rather than enseml or vice versa?? thank you for your help in advance Best, Chris [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

HI Chris, This is not uncommon in mammalian genomes. A protein coding gene on the other stand has exons in the introns of the other protein coding gene. The will Also be may instances of Ensemble gene ids within a gene on the same stand. There are often non-coding RNA's And sometimes there is just inconsistent nomenclature where there should be one geneid but for historical reasons (or other) alternative transcripts from the same gene have been given their own geneid... The same will happen in refseq too. So you will have to take it into account. Being biology the only rule is there is always an exception to the rule.

Hi Leo , Thank you very much for your kind help. I appreciate if you can explain this more A protein coding gene on the other stand has exons in the introns of the other protein coding gene. what do you think the solution for such cases?is it fine just to consider longest gene geneA in previous example and just ignore geneB??

HI Chris, That is really just a biology question , there are lots of examples (ok mainly UTR overlaps) but others intron-exon. Articles like: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC139260/ (and others you might get for searching very broadly with "overlapping genes in mouse examples") will help you. I think if you take a few specific examples from those papers and visualise them with (for example) the UCSC genome browser http://genome.cse.ucsc.edu/ you will get a feel for the field and come up with solutions that best suit your research.

Hi Leo, Thank you very much.
