Be sure that the file permissions allow it to be read by others.</p> <p> <strong>Step 2.</strong> Construct a URL that will link this annotation file to the Genome Browser. The URL must contain 3 pieces of information specific to your annotation data:</p> <ul> <li> The species or genome assembly on which your annotation data is based. To automatically display the most recent assembly for a given organism, set the <em>org</em> parameter: <em>e.g.</em> <code>org=human</code>. To specify a particular genome assembly for an organism, use the <em>db</em> parameter, <code>db=database_name</code>, where <em>database_name</em> is the UCSC code for the genome assembly. For a list of these codes, see the Genome Browser <a href="/FAQ/FAQreleases.html#release1" target="_blank">FAQ</a>. Examples of this include: db=hg16 (Human July 2003 assembly), db=mm6 (Mouse Mar. 2005 assembly).</li>
