How was this file generated?

Gene regions for chr1-22, chrX, and chrY

• All gene regions for chr1-22, chrX, and chrY were generated from the hg19 refFlat.txt file, which can be downloaded here.
• Gene transcripts were used to create the gene regions
• If a gene contains multiple transcripts
  • The lowest transcript start position was used as the starting position
  • The highest transcript end position was used as the ending position

Mitochondrial gene regions (chrM)

• All gene regions for chrM were take from the NIH Genetics Home Reference. Each region is written explicitly.
