Came across this paper recently:
HSD3B1(1245A>C) variant regulates dueling abiraterone metabolite effects in prostate cancer. - Alyamani M, et.al.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29939161
It mentions HSD3B1 1245A>C
variant.
First, I assumed 1245 refers to base pair position on the chromosome 1, but the gene position is chr1:120049825-120057681
using UCSC (http://genome-euro.ucsc.edu/ ):
#hg19.knownGene.name hg19.knownGene.chrom hg19.knownGene.txStart hg19.knownGene.txEnd hg19.kgXref.geneSymbol
uc001ehv.1 chr1 120049825 120057681 HSD3B1
uc031pnt.1 chr1 120049940 120057681 HSD3B1
Searching for chr1:1240-1250
gives nothing.
Question:
- What is the rsid for this variant?
- What are your usual steps to identify this type of ids?
