Hi Wei, BioMart has tools to extract tabular data that maps Ensembl transcript identifiers to alternate identifiers, gene symbols, etc. See the tool under "Get Data -> BioMart Central server". You'll likely have to map from Ensembl transcriptID -> HGNC transcript -> HGNC gene http://uswest.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Summary?db=core;g=ENSG0000022397... Other sources also have this type of data: http://www.genenames.org/data/hgnc_data.php?hgnc_id=37102 The Cuffdiff file will also need to be prepared, the Ensembl transcripts need to be in tabular format. 'Convert Delimiters to Tab' is the correct tool choice. Then, once both files have the data you wish to you in tabular format, join the data on common keys using tools in 'Join, Subtract and Group -> Column Join'. To finish, use tools in 'Text Manipulation', 'Filter and Sort', and 'Join, Subtract and Group' to format the data so that it is useful for your purposes. If you need help, we have screencasts cover most of these text manipulation operations: Galaxy 101 + Tool tutorials (top 6) http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Learn/Screencasts Hopefully this helps, Jen Galaxy team On 4/19/12 1:43 PM, Wei Liao wrote:

There are four transcript IDs belong to gene DDXL11L1, my question is how to replace these ID with official gene names? Thanks,
