Genome Browser inquiries
This website 200.144.254.2:8001 is a "mirror" not run by UCSC. Please try to contact the person who manages this mirror with questions.
If you mail the UCSC mailing list, please include this mirror's address http://200.144.254.2:8001 with any questions.
Before posting a question, we strongly encourage you to search our mailing list archives, our website, and our wiki for the answer. Please follow our technical support guidelines in your queries. This will give us enough to resolve your issue without requests for more information. PLoS Computational Biology has published a good set of guidelines for seeking online scientific help. When sending us a browser URL, we recommend that you use our Session tool to create a link that fully captures the browser settings. If copy/pasting a URL, be sure to remove the "hgsid=<value>" parameter from any URL you send, as this can cause your personal settings to change unexpectedly. Read more about making links in our documentation.
We encourage you to search the appropriate archive before contacting us
via the mailing list, but we will reply to your message as quickly as we
can.
