Get gene annotations

ExcisionFinder defines a gene as targetable in an individual for allele-specific excision if it has at least two allele-specific sgRNA sites that are predicted to disrupt at least one coding exon. To implement this, we need to have the coding exons annotated for each gene. Here is how you get that gene annotation file. This page is intended to support the code in this Jupyter notebook
