Four questions that start from a species or a published dataset rather than from one genome's files. Each reads a table prepared once on this machine and then shared by every project on it. Several of them answer with no genome open at all.

Page	What it answers
Transcription factors	Which genes a species' published census calls transcription factors, and which are cofactors.
Motifs	How to load a JASPAR release, scan sequence against it, and read the hits back.
Gene identifiers	How to convert ids between databases, and how to match a symbol that was renamed.
Homology	How Ensembl Compara links two species' genes, and how to resolve one species' ids into another's.

Anything that begins with one assembly's files is under Working with a genome.
