This directory contains a dump of the UCSC genome annotation database for the Apr. 2004 Release 1.0 assembly of the D. yakuba genome (version droYak1) obtained from the Genome Sequencing Center, Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. Files included in this directory (updated nightly): - *.sql files: the MySQL commands used to create the tables. To see descriptions of the tables underlying Genome Browser annotation tracks, select the table in the Table Browser: http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables?db=droYak1 and click the "describe table schema" button. There is also a "view table schema" link on the configuration page for each track. - *.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/droYak1/database/. To download multiple files, use the "mget" command: mget ... - or - mget -a (to download all the files in the directory) The D. yakuba sequence is made freely available before scientific publication by The Genome Sequencing Center, WUSTL School of Medicine with the following understanding: 1. The data may be freely downloaded, used in analyses, and repackaged in databases. 2. Users are free to use the data in scientific papers analyzing particular genes and regions if the providers of these data (Genome Sequencing Center, WUSTL School of Medicine) are properly acknowledged. 3. The Drosophila yakuba analysis group is aiming to publish an initial analysis of the D. yakuba genome sequence in 2005 (submitted in early 2005) that will include descriptions of the assembly, genome landscape, comparative analysis and initial gene content. People who would like to coordinate other genome-wide analysis with this work should contact Richard K. Wilson, Genome Sequencing Center Director, Washington University School of Medicine. We welcome a coordinated approach to describing this community resource. 4. Any redistribution of the data should carry this notice. All the annotations in this directory are freely available for public use.
