Files included in this directory:
- knownGene.exon*.fa.gz: for each exon in the hg18 UCSC Gene track, this
file contains either amino acids (AA) or nucleotides (Nuc) for hg18 and the
aligning genomes.
- knownCanonical.exon*.fa.gz: for each exon in the hg18 canonical set of UCSC
Genes, this file contains either amino acids (AA) or nucleotides (Nuc)
for hg18 and the aligning genomes.
- refGene.exon*.fa.gz: for each exon in the hg18 RefSeq Gene track, this file
contains either amino acids (AA) or nucleotides (Nuc) for hg18 and the
aligning genomes.

To download a large file or multiple files from this directory, we recommend
that you use ftp rather than downloading the files via our website. To do so:
ftp hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu
user name: anonymous
password: <your email address>
go to the directory goldenPath/hg18/multiz28way/alignments
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.
