This directory contains alignments of the following assemblies:

  - target/reference: Bonobo
    (panPan1, May. 2012 (Max-Planck/panPan1),
    Max-Planck Institute panpan1 (GCA_000258665.1))

  - query: Tarsier
    (tarSyr2, Sep. 2013 (Tarsius_syrichta-2.0.1/tarSyr2),
    Washington University)

Files included in this directory:

  - md5sum.txt: md5sum checksums for the files in this directory

  - panPan1.tarSyr2.all.chain.gz: chained blastz alignments. The chain format is
    described in http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/chain.html .

  - panPan1.tarSyr2.net.gz: "net" file that describes rearrangements between
    the species and the best Tarsier match to any part of the
    Bonobo genome.  The net format is described in
    http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/net.html .

  - panPan1.tarSyr2.net.axt.gz: chained and netted alignments,
    i.e. the best chains in the Bonobo genome, with gaps in the best
    chains filled in by next-best chains where possible.  The axt format is
    described in http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/axt.html .

The panPan1 and tarSyr2 assemblies were aligned by the blastz alignment
program, which is available from Webb Miller's lab at Penn State
University (http://www.bx.psu.edu/miller_lab/).  Any panPan1 sequences larger
than 40,010,000 bases were split into chunks of 40,010,000 bases overlapping
by 10,000 bases for alignment.  A similar process was followed for tarSyr2,
with chunks of 20,000,000 overlapping by 0.  Following alignment, the
coordinates of the chunk alignments were corrected by the
blastz-normalizeLav script written by Scott Schwartz of Penn State. 

The blastz scoring matrix (Q parameter) used was:

           A     C     G     T
      A   100  -172   -27  -121
      C  -172    95  -176   -27
      G   -27  -176    95  -172
      T  -121   -27  -172   100

with a gap open penalty of O=400 and a gap extension penalty of E=30.
The minimum score for an alignment to be kept was K=3000 for the first pass
and L=3000 for the second pass, which restricted the search space to the
regions between two alignments found in the first pass.  The minimum
score for alignments to be interpolated between was H=2000.  Other blastz
parameters specifically set for this species pair:
    E=30
    M=50
    O=400
    T=2
    X=1000
    Y=3400

The .lav format blastz output was translated to the .psl format with
lavToPsl, then chained by the axtChain program.

Chain minimum score: 3000, and linearGap matrix of (medium):

Chained alignments were processed into nets by the chainNet, netSyntenic,
and netClass programs.
Best-chain alignments in axt format were extracted by the netToAxt program.
All programs run after blastz were written by Jim Kent at UCSC.

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/panPan1/vsTarSyr2/. To download multiple files, use the "mget"
command:

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