Hi,

I am trying to figure out whether my gene of interest is expressed differentially between two tissues. I have been looking at GEO, but I am not clear on how to actually find my gene. I have tried all possible names I can come up with, but GEO does not seem to know the gene.

I guess this leaves me with the following questions:

1. Can I search GEO based on chromosome location?
2. Do you know of other databases that would allow me to do this?
3. Should I download the raw reads and redo the analysis?
4. other ideas?

As always, thanks for any help!
Are you looking at a particular dataset in GEO? More specific details would be helpful.

You might want to have a look at GTEX, which is a large systematic dataset of gene expression and eQTLs across many human tissues: http://www.gtexportal.org/home/
