This directory contains a dump of the UCSC genome annotation 
database for the Feb. 2002 freeze of the mouse genome from the
Mouse Genome Sequencing Consortium. The directory is updated 
nightly. 

The .txt.gz files contain the database tables in a tab-delimited 
format compressed with gzip. The .sql files contain the MySQL 
commands 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=mm2
and click the "describe table schema" button.  There is also a "view
table schema" link on the configuration page for each track.

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/mmFeb2002/database. To download multiple files, use 
the "mget" command:

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