This directory contains compressed multiple alignments of
12 genomes to the Danio rerio/danRer10/Sept. 2014 zebrafish genome.
These alignments were prepared using the methods described in the
track description file:
http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=danRer10&g=cons12way
based on the phylogenetic tree: danRer10.12way.nh.
danRer10.12way.maf.gz
Files in this directory:
- danRer10.12way.nh - phylogenetic tree used during the multiz multiple
alignment, using the UCSC database name, or sequence name for those
sequences that are not hosted in UCSC databases.
- danRer10.12way.scientificName.nh - same as danRer10.12way.nh with the
sequence name replaced with the scientific name for the species.
- danRer10.12way.commonNames.nh - same as danRer10.12way.nh with the sequence
name replaced with the common name
- danRer10.12way.maf.gz - multiple alignments on zebrafish
- upstream*.ensGene.maf.gz - alignments of regions upstream of
Ensembl genes
- md5sum.txt - md5 check sums of these files to verify correct download files
The "alignments" directory contains compressed FASTA alignments
for the CDS regions for the gene track: ensGene,
of the zebrafish genome (danRer10, Sept. 2014) aligned to the assemblies.
The danRer10.12way.maf.gz file contains all the alignments on the zebrafish
genome, including additional annotations to indicate gap
context and genomic breaks for the sequence in the underlying
genome assemblies. Note, the compressed data size of these
maf files is 1.2 Gb, uncompressed is approximately 5.4 Gb.
The upstream*.ensGene.maf.gz files contain alignments in regions upstream of
annotated transcription starts for Ensembl genes. with annotated 5' UTRs.
These files differ from the standard MAF format: they display
alignments that extend from start to end of the upstream region in
chicken, whether or not alignments actually exist. In situations where no
alignments exist or the alignments of one or more species are missing,
dot (".") is used as a placeholder. Multiple regions of an assembly's
sequence may align to a single region in chicken; therefore, only the
species name is displayed in the alignment data and no position information
is recorded. The alignment score is always zero in these files.
