    Hi All<br>
    <br>
    Might be a naive question.  When I look in biomart (Ensembl 61+Homo
    sapiens), I don't see the entrez id for ensembl gene
    (ENSG00000178980). Also could not see cross reference to entrez
    under External references section in gene page for this gene(SEPW1).<br>
    <br>
    Biomart output:<br>
    <table class="mart_table">
      <tbody>
        <tr class="mart_tr1">
          <th class="mart_th">Ensembl Gene ID</th>
          <th class="mart_th">Ensembl Transcript ID</th>
          <th class="mart_th">EntrezGene ID</th>
        </tr>
        <tr class="mart_tr1">
          <td class="mart_td"><a
href="http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Summary?db=core;g=ENSG00000178980"
              target="_blank">ENSG00000178980</a></td>
          <td class="mart_td"><a

              target="_blank">ENST00000509570</a></td>
          <td class="mart_td"><br>
          </td>
        </tr>
        <tr class="mart_tr1">
          <td class="mart_td"><a
href="http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Summary?db=core;g=ENSG00000178980"
              target="_blank">ENSG00000178980</a></td>
          <td class="mart_td"><a

          <td class="mart_td"><br>
          </td>
        </tr>
      </tbody>
    </table>
    <br>
    But I could see the mapping entrez id (6415) in 'gene2ensembl' file
    downloaded from NCBI (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/gene/DATA/">ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/gene/DATA/</a>)<br>
    <br>
    grep 'ENSG00000178980' gene2ensembl<br>
    9606    6415    ENSG00000178980    NM_003009.2    ENST00000509570   
    NP_003000.1    ENSP00000422644<br>
    <br>
    Wondering why biomart/ensembl is missing this entrez mapping for
    some genes.  (Pls Note: This gene is an example)<br>
    <br>
    Thanks<br>
