[ensembl-dev] Eactracting Downstream Seq of Drosophila Melanogaster

Hi Syed,
Thank you for reporting this issue. We are currently looking into the cause of the problem. In the meantime, you can get the downstream sequences for Fly from the Ensembl Genomes BioMart databases here:

http://metazoa.ensembl.org/biomart/martview/

I hope that helps,
Regards
Rhoda
