<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Ensembl team,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a query about mapping from protein coordinates to genomic coordinates:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I map each amino acid I usually expect to get 3 nucleic acid coordinates, however in some cases I get only 2 or 1 coordinates. What would be the reason for this?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I use python to do this and my code is following:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ext = "http:/grch37.rest.ensembl.org/map/translation/<span style="color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">ENSP00000325527</span>/82..82;<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">this gives me a result: <span style="color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">
[48905207] – why is it just one nucleic acid coordinate instead of 3?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">In other case :
</span>ext = "http:/grch37.rest.ensembl.org/map/translation/<span style="color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">ENSP00000325527</span>/54..54; Gives me :
<span style="color:black;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB">[48936803| 48936804]<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">;<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However most of the time it is 3 coordinates as I expect it to be.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hope you can help,<o:p></o:p></p>
