Hi Pande,
Perhaps there is a problem interpreting the MAF format? MAF is different than BED or Interval in that it only has a start coordinate. it is also 1-based,
MAF format has a 0-based start (not 1-based)
Very sorry to be confusing, Jen
which may or may not be problem since it is not clear how you
are viewing or extracting sequences. Here is the MAF FAQ from UCSC: http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQformat.html#format5
To work with MAF data in Galaxy, use the tools in Convert Formats.
Another option is to use the LiftOver tool. It is based on the same source data from UCSC and is a more direct method to convert coordinates between genomes. To do this:
- load the human coordinates
- liftOver human -> mouse (minmatch can be lowered to 0.10 for
cross-species lifts, but if you find that you are getting to many "multiple matches" raise this back up. Sometimes being strict, then less strict through a progressive cycles with failed regions will yield the best overall results). 3) use Text Manipulation: Compute an expression on every row to expand the mouse intervals, if you want to expand the ranges 4) use Fetch Sequences if you want the fasta mouse genome sequence for the intervals
Please let us know if you continue to have problems. Sharing a history with the problem datasets/operations would be a great way to explain the issue.
Thanks!

Dear Galaxy, I have some genomic intervals for the human genome and want to extract the same for the mouse.So, I used the MAF pairwise alignment tool. But, interestingly, the associated sequences are not to be found at all through the genome browser, for file that galaxy generated for me. Here are a few first alignments from the sample:
##maf version=1 a score=5002 s hg18.chr1 1820410 11 + 247249719 GGATCCAG-------ATG s mm9.chr4 769022 18 - 155630120 GAAACAAGGTGTTCCATG

I just want the sequences from the mouse genome and extended up to 120 base pairs from the co-ordinate mentioned in the maf file. It only generates NNNNNNNNNNNNN....I was wondering how could Galaxy retrieve it, while I can't see the same in the genome browser.
Kindly help.
