README from ftp://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/genomes/
date: MAR-27-98
#############################################################
This experimental directory includes some of the complete genomes,
chromosomes and large (> 350 kb) sequences present in
the Entrez genomes division (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Entrez/)
The files are present in the following formats:
*.asn = ASN.1 file, print form, replaces .prt
*.faa = FASTA Amino Acid file (new)
*.fna = FASTA Nucleic Acid file (was *.fsa)
*.gbk = GenBank flat file format
*.gbs = GenBank summary file format
*.ptt = ProTein Table (new)
*.tab = Table to assemble genome (new)
*.val = ASN.1 binary format
*.tar.Z = unix tar and compressed files (not all files are compressed),
where all of the above files are present. If you want all
files for a group, all you need is to FTP this one file.
Presently these completed genomes are organized in the
following directories:
>> bacteria/Aful/
aful.* = Archaeoglobus fulgidus complete genome
>> bacteria/Aquae/
aquae.* = Aquifex aeolicus complete genome
>> bacteria/Bbur/
bbur.* = Borrelia burgdorferi complete genome
bbur.plasmids.* = Borrelia burgdorferi,
11 plasmids, complete sequence.
>> bacteria/Bsub/
bsub.* = Bacillus subtilis complete genome
>> bacteria/Ecoli/
ecoli.* = Escherichia coli complete genome **
** NOTE: there are two FASTA files for the E. coli genome,
and these have been moved to bacteria/Ecoli/OLD:
1) ecoli.fsa: From Fred Blattner and colleagues.
2) ecoli.japan.fsa: From the E. coli database group
(see ftp://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/genomes/ecoli.japan.README)
ecoli.400-gbff.tar.Z = the 400 GenBank Flat Files which are
presently in GenBank. (from Blattner and colleagues)
>> bacteria/Hinf/
hinf.* = Haemophilus influenzae Rd complete genome
>> bacteria/Hpyl/
hpyl.* = Helicobacter pylori complete genome
hpyl.134-gbff.Z = the 134 GenBank Flat Files which are
presently in GenBank.
>> bacteria/Mgeni/
mgen.* = Mycoplasma genitalium complete genome
>> bacteria/Mjan/
mjan.* = Methanococcus jannaschii complete genome
>> bacteria/Mpneu/
mpneu.* = Mycoplasma pneumoniae complete genome
>> bacteria/Mthe/
mthe.* = Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum complete genome.
>> bacteria/R_pNGR/
pNGR234.* = Rhizobium sp. NGR234 complete plasmid sequence
>> bacteria/Synecho/
synecho.* = Synechocystis PCC6803 complete genome
>> S_cerevisiae/Chr[01/16]
yst_chr_[01/16].* = Saccharomyces cerevisiae complete genome
PLEASE NOTE: we are presently experiencing a problem with yeast
chromosome XII (12) and we hope to remedy the yst_chr_12.gbk
file shortly. It is an assembly problem, not one caused by the
component GenBank flatfile (which are all OK, and all present)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Not all formats are there for all large sequences in the
genomes division, but it is our goal to do so.
Please let us know if another format you may want is not there,
we may be able to produce it.
