Using R Studio Example question: What are the rat homologs of the genes in a 100 kilobase region of human chromosome 11?
Ex Solution: getBM(c("rnorvegicus_homolog_ensemb l_gene"), filters=c("chromosome_name","start" ,"end"), values=list(11,5200000,5300000), mart=ensembl)

Question 1: how to do I convert this to 500 kb and chromosome 3

Question 2: Annotate the following two RefSeq identifiers: NM_005359 and NM_000546 (refseq_mrna) with INTERPRO protein domain identifiers (interpro) and a description of the protein domains (interpro_description).

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."

the most common type of reef is the fringing reef. this type of reef grows seaward directly from the shore. they form borders along the shoreline and surrounding islands.
