                  <div>I got a way of saving the sequence as FAST on a
                    notepad/ and running the BLAST for nucleotide
                    sequence, cDNA etc<br>
                  </div>
                  The task had no specific scope.It was just to look for
                  as much information as we could on TGFb1.<br>

                I wish i had the restriction of the search to give to

    If I were you, I would BLAST each cDNA separately.  Then report on
    the top hits for each cDNA, and mention which ones are protein
    coding and which ones are not (As in my previous message).<br>
    <br>
    That's as much as I can help you with in regards to this problem.<br>
    <br>
    Please email <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:helpdesk@ensembl.org">helpdesk@ensembl.org</a> with this type of question in the
    future (not <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:dev@ensembl.org">dev@ensembl.org</a>).<br>
    <br>
    Good luck with your report!<br>

              <div>Hi Paul,<br>
                <br>
                The dev list is really for questions about the API, and
                local installations.  For questions along the lines of
                BLAST and how to decide which transcript to use, it may
                be better to email us at <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="mailto:helpdesk@ensembl.org" target="_blank">helpdesk@ensembl.org</a><br>
                <br>
                The answer to your question depends on what you are
                trying to do.  What is your hypothesis or the question
                you are trying to answer with your comparison?<br>
                <br>
                Two out of the four splice variants are protein coding,
                as you can see in the Transcript Table at the top of
                Gene and Transcript views (like this one):<br>
                <br>
                <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Summary?db=core;g=ENSG00000105329;r=19:41807492-41859816;t=ENST00000221930"
                  target="_blank">http://www.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Summary?db=core;g=ENSG00000105329;r=19:41807492-41859816;t=ENST00000221930</a><br>
                <br>
                (TGFB1-001 and 004 are protein coding).<br>
                <br>
                The first transcript (TGFB-001) is part of the CCDS set,
                meaning the coding sequence and protein sequence are
                agreed upon between several genomic projects.  In other
                words, TGFB-001 has a high quality (high confidence)
                coding sequence.<br>
                <br>
                The second protein-coding transcript in the table
                (TGFB-004) is not in the CCDS.  If you look at the
                'General identifiers' section of the Transcript Tab, you
                can find out what the transcript matches to (outside
                Ensembl)- in this case it's a TrEMBL cDNA: <br>

                <br>
                You can see the protein/cDNA sequence for each
                transcript in the cDNA link at the left of the
                Transcript Tab, which might allow you a more informed
