Hi,
I obtained a list of refseq genes from UCSC genome in the bed file format. For my analysis I would like to see if a particular region falls within a few bp (say 1000bp) upstream to the gene as well.
Is it as simple as just adding 1000bp to the gene starting position (e.g., below) -> 8378298 + 1000 = 8379298? I'm assuming there is a catch here. Can anyone tell me the right way to do it?

e.g: chrI 8378298 8390022 NM_001129046 0 - 8378298 8390022 0 8 123,103,110,116,65,69,124,113, 0,832,1401,2025,9723,9836,10481,11611,
