[ensembl-dev] querry about rest API, single nucleic coordinate for amino acid

[Emily Perry]

Dear Matiss,

As mentioned in the posting guidelines linked at the bottom of every dev 
message and sent to new subscribers to the list, Ensembl provides user 
support both via this list and via helpdesk at ensembl.org and we ask users 
to please not send the same issue to both dev and helpdesk.

All of the questions eventually come to the same set of people and it is 
generally a better use of time to answer the questions only once. I will 
delete your ticket on Ensembl helpdesk.

Thanks,
Emily on behalf of the Ensembl Team
