This directory contains a dump of the UCSC genome annotation database 
for the May 2005 Zv5 freeze of the zebrafish genome (UCSC version 
danRer2) obtained from the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute in Cambridge, 
UK, the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology in Tuebingen, 
Germany, the Netherlands Institute for Developmental Biology 
(Hubrecht Laboratory), Utrecht, The Netherlands and Yi Zhou and 
Leonard Zon from the Children's Hospital in Boston, Massachusetts.

Files included in this directory (updated nightly):

  - *.sql files: the MySQL commands used to create the tables.  See 
    http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/gbdDescriptions.html for 
    descriptions of the tables.

  - *.txt.gz files: the database tables in a tab-delimited format 
    compressed with gzip. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------
If you plan to download a large file or multiple files from this 
directory, we recommend that you use ftp rather than downloading the 
files via our website. To do so, ftp to hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu, then 
go to the directory goldenPath/danRer3/database. To download multiple files, 
use the "mget" command:

    mget <filename1> <filename2> ...
    - or -
    mget -a (to download all the files in the directory) 

All the annotations in this directory are freely usable for any purpose. 

The Zv5 zebrafish sequence data were produced by the Zebrafish Sequencing 
Group at the Sanger Institute and can be obtained directly from 
ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/zebrafish/. All sequence data are made available 
before scientific publication with the understanding that the groups
involved in generating the data intend to publish the initial large-scale 
analyses of the dataset. This will include a summary detailing the data that 
have beeen generated and key features of the genome identified from genomic 
assembly and clone mapping/sequencing. Any redistribution of the data 
should carry this notice.
