Here’s the list for which a given gene symbol corresponds to multiple Ensembl gene ID in the data.
I learned that there are some regions on the genome that show substantial variability in the population, and subsequently can have multiple representations (sequences). These regions are known as “alternate loci”.
I got some of these info from this paper https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5155401/. According to this paper, the GRCh38 patch assembly has a total of 178 alternate-locus-containing regions associated with a total of 261 alternate loci.
For example, TAF9 has two alternative loci which correspond to two different Ensembl ID, and you can see the location fo these two here on this page http://useast.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Gene/Alleles?db=core;g=ENSG00000273841;r=5:69364743-69370013. Click on “View alleles of this gene on alternate assemblies”.
Another example is TUBB which corresponds to 8 Ensembl IDs. It is located in MHC region which is known to have 8 alternative loci (corresponding to 8 different cell lines; https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/grc/human/regions/MHC). So there’s no surprise that TUBB has 8 Ensembl ID.
