This directory contains a dump of the UCSC genome annotation database for the
May 2019 (UMICH_Zoey_3.1/canFam5) assembly of the dog genome
(canFam5, University of Michigan) .
The annotations were generated by UCSC and collaborators worldwide.
For more information about this assembly, please note the NCBI resources:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/85
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genome/assembly/3218611
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/318403
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biosample/SAMN04851098
Files included in this directory (updated nightly):
- *.sql files: the MySQL commands used to create the tables
- *.txt.gz files: the database tables in a tab-delimited format
compressed with gzip.
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=canFam5
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 you use ftp rather than downloading the files
via our website. To do so, ftp to hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu, then go to
the directory goldenPath/canFam5/database/. To download multiple
files, use the "mget" command:
mget <filename1> <filename2> ...
- or -
mget -a (to download all the files in the directory)
Alternate methods to ftp access.
Using an rsync command to download the entire directory:
rsync -avzP rsync://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/canFam5/database/ .
For a single file, e.g. gc5Base.txt.gz
rsync -avzP
rsync://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/canFam5/database/gc5Base.txt.gz .
Or with wget, all files:
wget --timestamping
'ftp://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/canFam5/database/*'
With wget, a single file:
wget --timestamping
'ftp://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/canFam5/database/gc5Base.txt.gz'
-O gc5Base.txt.gz
To uncompress the *.txt.gz files:
gunzip <table>.txt.gz
The tables can be loaded directly from the .txt.gz compressed file.
It is not necessary to uncompress them to load into a database,
as shown in the example below.
To load one of the tables directly into your local mirror database,
for example the table chromInfo:
## create table from the sql definition
$ hgsql canFam5 < chromInfo.sql
## load data from the txt.gz file
$ zcat chromInfo.txt.gz | hgsql canFam5 --local-infile=1
-e 'LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE "/dev/stdin" INTO TABLE chromInfo;'

GenBank Data Usage
The GenBank database is designed to provide and encourage access within
the scientific community to the most up to date and comprehensive DNA
sequence information. Therefore, NCBI places no restrictions on the use
or distribution of the GenBank data. However, some submitters may claim
patent, copyright, or other intellectual property rights in all or a
portion of the data they have submitted. NCBI is not in a position to
assess the validity of such claims, and therefore cannot provide comment
