Exons and introns

The exons view provides information about specific exons and introns (Figure 16). It may be useful for selecting sequence to design primers. 

Figure 16 The exons view, accessed from the transcript tab’s left-hand menu, shows UTR (in orange), coding sequence (blue), introns (grey) and flanking sequence (green). Variants are highlighted on the sequence in the colours shown in the legend.
  Click on ‘configure this page’ to add/hide the variant highlighting on the sequence.

Watch the video below to learn how you can retrieve exon and intron sequences using the Ensembl genome browser (Video 10).
