Hi,

One more question regarding FASTA alignments.

How codon translation was done for the downloadable multiz46way FASTA files? 
There are several options listed at cons46way track description page here:

http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg19&g=cons46way

---Quote---
# Use default species reading frames for translation: the annotations from the 
genome displayed in the Default species for translation; pull-down menu are 
used to translate all the aligned species present in the alignment.
# Use reading frames for species if available, otherwise no translation: codon 
translation is performed only for those species where the region is annotated 
as protein coding.
# Use reading frames for species if available, otherwise use default species: 
codon translation is done on those species that are annotated as being protein 
coding over the aligned region using species-specific annotation; the remaining 
species are translated using the default species annotation.
---End quote---

Which one of these options was used to generate each of the multiz46way FASTA 
sets available?

knownGene.exonAA.fa.gz
knownCanonical.exonAA.fa.gz
refGene.exonAA.fa.gz

The above track description page also mentions muliz alignments for Ensembl 
Genes and XenoRef Genes. These are not available as pre-built FASTA files, is 
this correct?

Thanks,
Ivan
