Dear all,
maybe is a silly question, but I'd like to know if the file: "interim_GRCh37.p13_top_level_2017-01-13.gff3" (ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/H_sapiens/GRCh37.p13_interim_annotation/interim_GRCh37.p13_top_level_2017-01-13.gff3.gz) is the latest version to get genetic coordinates (hg19) of some genes.
As example, I found that when compared with UCSC (https://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables) the START coordinates is alway 1bp before and same for exams coordinates.
Let me know if you know something more specifically.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Yes for the first.Gencode release 19 is the latest release for hg19 (GRCh37.p13): https://www.gencodegenes.org/human/release_19.html
