# How can I quickly check the coverage for a specific exon of a given transcript or gene?

You can see exon-level coverage using our "**Gene coverage**" tool which you can find in the "[Analysis actions](https://docs.varsome.com/analysis-actions?hsLang=en)" menu:

This will take you to a new page, showing a long list of genes. You can filter for your gene of interest:

You can also access a gene's transcripts dendrogram by clicking on the "**Gene Coverage**" icon for a specific variant directly in the Variant Table:

When you reach the dendrogram page, you can select the transcript and exon you are interested in, and you will see the coverage for that exon in parentheses:
