How To Download Venter Genome

Question

[Chen Sun]

I want to download the Venter genome for comparing analysis with hg19.

I follow the link: http://huref.jcvi.org/ and find there are several resources:

• Genome Sequence in Genbank
• Traces from the NCBI Trace Archive
• Read Data (fasta sequence, quality and xml meta data)
• Additional Data (variants, microarray genotypes, and haplotypes)
• Download HuRef databases
• Celera Assembler

The first "Genome Sequence in Genbank" is most possible, but when I click it, it brings me to this link: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/148192284, where I do not know how to download the sequence.

I also try other links but did not find the sequences. The link "Download HuRef databases" just bring me to some sql files so I think it is not possible what I really want.

Can someone give me some suggestions?

see: under ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/genomes/Homo_sapiens/

Thank you, is "Homo_sapiens" specific for Venter's genome? as first I thought "Homo_sapiens" means human's genome in general

[Chen Sun]

the genome with name "HuRef" is venter's genome

under ftp://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/genomes/Homo_sapiens/, the sequence data with filename "HuRef" is venter's genome
