I'm trying to understand how to check the length of a gene on the NCBI website but I couldn't do it, can anyone help me?

Visit the NCBI Gene Database: Go to the NCBI Gene database at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/. Search for the Gene: Use the search bar on the NCBI Gene homepage to search for the gene of interest. Enter the gene symbol, gene name, or any other relevant identifier. Select the Gene Entry: From the search results, click on the appropriate gene entry to access the detailed information about the gene. View Gene Information: Once you are on the gene page, you should find information about the gene, including its genomic coordinates and length. Retrieve Gene Length: Look for the genomic coordinates or size information on the gene page. The gene length may be provided in terms of the number of base pairs (bp) or kilobases (kb). Additional Information: Explore other sections of the gene entry for more details, such as the gene structure, exons, introns, and any available annotations. Using the Genome Data Viewer (Optional): If you want a more detailed view of the gene and its surrounding genomic region, you can use the Genome Data Viewer (GDV) linked from the gene page.
