Hello all,

I'm beginning to work with data bases form my Master Thesis.

I want to map each organism name with the corresponding UCSC Genome Browser assembly ID to save it in a table. As I don't have the UCSC database available to work with MySQL my question is if there is any way to get all the UCSC Genome Browser assembly ID.

Thanks you all!

Genomax already answered, but here is also a mysql command you can use if you don't want to download the entire hgcentral database dump:

$ mysql -h genome-mysql.soe.ucsc.edu -u genome -e "select name, scientificName from dbDb limit 5" hgcentral
+---------+-------------------------------------+
| name    | scientificName                      |
+---------+-------------------------------------+
| hg38    | Homo sapiens                        |
| balAcu1 | Balaenoptera acutorostrata scammoni |
| calMil1 | Callorhinchus milii                 |
| rn6     | Rattus norvegicus                   |
| sorAra2 | Sorex araneus                       |
+---------+-------------------------------------+

You can use the public MySQL server made available by UCSC to query any data you need.

That said UCSC only has a subset of genomes available.

Thank you for your answer but I still can not guess how to obtain a list with the species name and the corresponding UCSC Genome Browser assembly ID.

Not exactly sure what you mean by Genome Browser Assembly ID but if you look in this directory of all genomes every folder should have a bigZips folder. There are .2bit genome files in these folders that have the assembly name (If that is what you mean by ID). e.g. In this folder, anoGam1.2bit for Mosquito.

UCSC uses the same genome build ID's as used by entities that release official genome builds for various organisms.

What I'm looking is to pair for example Homo sapiens with hg38 (which is the UCSC Genome Browser assembly ID), I don't need any information about the genome itself.

Thank you for your answers!
