Rhoda,

I have written to helpdesk at ensembl.org two days ago. But no response,
maybe need more time to wait.

Could you give me some words about why the items get by bioMart is not
the same as in the ftp
directory functional_genomics? If I can download the file from FTP
sites, it will be more easy than using biomaRt.

ftp://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/release-62/functional_genomics/homo_sapiens/
ftp://ftp.ensembl.org/pub/release-62/functional_genomics/homo_sapiens/RegulatoryFeatures_CD4.Chr22.gff.gz
