Hi Ron, We do not have a way for you to selectively filter MAF files prior to downloading them. However, the Galaxy website (http://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/), run by our collaborators at Penn State, has several tools for manipulating MAFs, including a "Filter MAF blocks by Species" tool (under the "Fetch Alignments" menu on the left-hand side of the page).
More information is here: http://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/wiki/MAFanalysis If you have further questions, please reply to us at [email protected], or contact Galaxy's helpdesk if you have specific questions about their tools. -- Brooke Rhead UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Group On 04/09/10 10:41, Ron S Gejman wrote: > Dear all, > > I am writing to inquire whether it is possible to obtain 3-way alignments > from the UCSC Genome Browser.
