This directory contains compressed phastCons scores for multiple alignments
of 7 vertebrate genomes to the zebrafish genome, plus an alternate set
of scores for a subset of five fish species in the alignments.
Files in this directory are:
vertebrate.mod phastCons tree model with branch lengths
for all 8 species
hg19 mm9 xenTro2 tetNig2 fr2 gasAcu1 oryLat2 danRer7
(human, mouse, X. tropicalis, tetraodon, fugu, stickleback, medaka, zebrafish)
fish.mod phastCons tree model for the fish subset:
tetNig2 fr2 gasAcu1 oryLat2 danRer7
(tetraodon, fugu, stickleback, medaka, zebrafish)
vertebrate.phastCons8way.wigFix.gz phastCons scores for 8 species
fish.phastCons8way.wigFix.gz phastCons scores for fish subset
vertebrate.phastCons8way.bw phastCons scores for 8 species in bigWig format
fish.phastCons8way.bw phastCons scores for fish subset in bigWig format

To download a large file or multiple files from this directory, we recommend
that you use rsync or ftp rather than downloading the files via our website.
There is approximately 8.5 Gb of compressed data in this directory.
Via rsync:
rsync -avz --progress \
rsync://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/danRer7/phastCons8way/ ./
Via FTP:
ftp hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu

go to the directory goldenPath/danRer7/phastCons8way
To download multiple files from the UNIX command line, use the "mget" command.
mget <filename1> <filename2> ...
- or -
mget -a (to download all the files in the directory)
Use the "prompt" command to toggle the interactive mode if you do not want
to be prompted for each file that you download.
