Description Usage Format Details References

This data set catalogs combined exon segments from the 22 human autosomes.

hg_exons

A data set with 223565 rows and 4 variables:

chrom: Numeric. The chromosome number.
exonStart: Numeric. The position of the first base pair in the combined exon segment.
exonStop: Numeric. The position of the last base pair in the combined exon segment.
NCBIref: Character. The NCBI reference sequence accession number of the gene(s) in which the exon(s) reside.

The hg_exons data set catalogs the positions of exons residing in the 22 human autosomes. The data contained in hg_exons was collected from the hg 38 reference genome with the UCSC Genome Browser's Table Brower Tool. In hg_exons overlapping exons have been combined into a single observation. When exons from genes with different NCBI accession numbers have been combined the variable NCBIref will contain multiple accession numbers separated by commas. We note that different accession numbers may exist for transcript variants of the same gene.
