NAME

       browse_import_ucsc_db - Creates a framework data source

DESCRIPTION

       This  creates  a  framework  data source for one of the genomes known to the UCSC Genome Browser. You can
       then modify the data source configuration file, add your own data, and so forth. Provide the  name  of  a
       UCSC genome build and optionally a description to display in GBrowse.

       To  get  started,  find  the desired data source by going to http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgGateway and
       using the "clade" and "genome" menus to navigate to the desired species and build number. You  will  find
       the data source name in the blue box below the navigation controls. Look for something like this:

        D. melanogaster Genome Browser – dm3 assembly (sequences)

       The data source name appears before the word "assembly", in this case "dm3".
