This directory contains compressed multiple alignments of the following assemblies to the fugu genome (fr2, Oct 2004): - tetraodon (Feb 2004, tetNig1) - stickleback (Feb 2006, gasAcu1) - medaka (Oct 2005, oryLat1) - zebrafish (Mar 2006, danRer4) Files included in this directory: chrM.maf.gz and chrUn.maf.gz - alignments to the fugu chrM and scaffolds - ensGene.upstream*.maf.gz: alignments to regions (1000, 2000 and 5000) bases upstream of fugu Ensembl genes. For a description of multiple alignment format (MAF), see http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/maf.html. --------------------------------------------------------------- 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/fr2/multiz5way. To download multiple files, use the "mget" command: mget ... - or - mget -a (to download all the files in the directory) All the files in this directory are freely usable for any purpose. For data use restrictions regarding the individual genome assemblies, see http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/credits.html.
