This directory contains the Btau_1.0 cow genome assembly (bosTau1, 
Sep. 2004) produced by the Baylor College of Medicine Human Genome 
Sequencing Center.  For more information about these data, see the 
Baylor web page at http://www.hgsc.bcm.tmc.edu/projects/bovine/.

Files in this directory include:

bosTau1.hardmask.fa.gz
    Repeats from RepeatMasker and Tandem Repeats Finder (with period
    of 12 or less) are shown as Ns; non-repeating sequence is
    shown in upper case.  

bosTau1.softmask.fa.gz
    Repeats from RepeatMasker are shown in lower case; non-repeating 
    sequence is shown in upper case.  
    
bosTau1.softmask2.fa.gz

    Repeats from RepeatMasker and Tandem Repeats Finder (with period
    of 12 or less) are shown in lower case; non-repeating sequence is
    shown in upper case.  
    
    RepeatMasker July 2004 version with RepBase libraries: 
    RepBase Update 9.04, RM database version 20040702.

est.fa.gz - Cow ESTs in GenBank. This sequence data is updated once a 
    week via automatic GenBank updates.

md5sum.txt - MD5 checksum of these files to verify correct transmission.

mrna.fa.gz - Cow mRNA from GenBank. This sequence data is updated once 
    a week via automatic GenBank updates.

scaffoldAgp.zip - Description of how the assembly was generated from
     fragments.  Downloaded from Baylor Sept. 30, 2004.

scaffoldFa.zip -  Sequences downloaded from Baylor Sept. 30, 2004.


bosTau1.chrom.sizes - Two-column tab-separated text file containing assembly
    sequence names and sizes.

-------------------------------------------------------------
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.cse.ucsc.edu, then go to 
the directory goldenPath/bosTau1/bigZips. To download multiple files, use
the "mget" command:

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

Please review the restrictions on the use of the cow assembly data at
http://www.hgsc.bcm.tmc.edu/projects/conditions_for_use.html.
