Hi Duarte,<br>
<br>
Can you check which database you are connecting to?<br>
<br>
I tried the following:<br>
my $registry = "Bio::EnsEMBL::Registry";<br>
$registry->load_registry_from_db(<br>
-db_version => 77,<br>
-host => 'ensembldb.ensembl.org',<br>
-user => 'anonymous',<br>
-port => '3337',<br>
);<br>
<br>
my $query_gene = "CYP2D7P";<br>
my $gene_adaptor = $registry->get_adaptor('human', 'core',
'gene');<br>
print "Using database " . $gene_adaptor->dbc->dbname() . "\n";<br>
my @fetched_genes =
@{$gene_adaptor->fetch_all_by_display_label($query_gene)};<br>
foreach my $gene (@fetched_genes) {<br>
print "Found " . $gene->stable_id . " with name " .
$gene->display_xref->display_id . "\n"; <br>
}<br>
<br>
And got the following results:<br>
Using database homo_sapiens_core_77_37<br>
Found ENSG00000205702 with name CYP2D7P<br>
Found ENSG00000263181 with name CYP2D7P<br>
<br>
This also works on the live GRCh38 database.<br>
<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Magali<br>

<div>I have simple script to fetch gene information and I am
having problems with a particular gene that I know is correct

<div><br>
</div>
<div>here is the code I use to fecth it:<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>$query_gene = "CYP2D7P";</div>
<div><span class="" style="white-space:pre"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span class="" style="white-space:pre"> </span>my
@fetched_genes =
@{$gene_adaptor->fetch_all_by_display_label($query_gene)};<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>however ...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>this method returns an empty list.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Why is this?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have also tried:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div><span class="" style="white-space:pre"> </span>my
@fetched_genes = @{
$gene_adaptor->fetch_all_by_external_name($query_gene) };</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>and this also fails.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?</div>
<div><br>
