Hi, I wanted to determine the locations for all the alternative splicing sites. I've made the query in biomaRt, but am not sure if this is giving me what I want. Any help would be appreciated! ##### library(biomaRt) ensembl = useMart("ensembl", dataset = "hsapiens_gene_ensembl") atb2 <- c("dbass5_id","dbass5_name",'hgnc_symbol','chromosome_name','s tart_position','end_position','strand') splice.locs <- getBM(attributes=atb2, mart=ensembl) print(splice.locs[1:5,]) #### thanks!

Hi Tim As you are only asking for the DBASS5 name and id, you will only get the aberrant 5' splice sites generated as a result of disease-causing mutations in human genes (see here for more information: http://www.som.soton.ac.uk/research/geneticsdiv/dbass5/) . You should take a look at the transcript event attributes from the Ensembl BioMart (see here for paper about this project: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18978772) as this will give you the alternative splice site data i think you are looking for. <query virtualschemaname="default" formatter="TSV" header="0" uniquerows="0" count="" datasetconfigversion="0.6"> <dataset name="hsapiens_gene_ensembl" interface="default"> <attribute name="ensembl_gene_id"/> <attribute name="ensembl_transcript_id"/> <attribute name="ensembl_peptide_id"/> <attribute name="name_1078"/> <attribute name="splicing_event__dm_name_1059"/> <attribute name="splicing_event_type"/> <attribute name="name_106"/> <attribute name="seq_region_start_1078"/> <attribute name="seq_region_end_1078"/> <attribute name="seq_region_strand_1078"/> </dataset> </query> I hope that helps Regards Rhoda On 24 Oct 2011, at 20:10, Tim Smith wrote: > Hi, > > I wanted to determine the locations for all the alternative splicing > sites.
