We are using the latest production release of Jalview. A student did the following:
Having found a variant they wanted to visualise in exon ENSE00003533602 in the BRCA1 gene ENSG00000012048 transcript BRCA1-001 ENST00000357654
retrieved the genomic sequence from ENSEMBL using the Fetch Sequences option. The transcript was retrieved but was missing the desired exon.
The exon is clearly included in the ENSEMBL website (both Gr38 and Gr37)
Any ideas as to why this exon is not seen? It is very large (3426 aa), and trying to directly retrieve it with the Fetch Sequences also fails.

Hello David,
The short answer is that exon ENSE00003533602 does not appear in the GFF exon features for the gene retrieved by Jalview:
http://rest.ensembl.org/overlap/id/ENSG00000012048?content-type=text/x-gff3&feature=exon
Why that is different from a view on the Ensembl web site will need a bit of further investigation.
Thanks,
Mungo

I think there is a typo for ENSE00003522602 which does seem to appear as an exon feature in Jalview?
