[ensembl-dev] Annotation discrepancy

[ian Longden]

When you do the search do you have the species defined as the Entrez
GeneID is different for different species:-

i.e. in human HSPE1 is 3336
but in cow     HSPE1 is 281833

For rhesus monkey it is 100425423

Does this explain it or do i need to do some more investigating.
