Hello @pej That genome has not been indexed for HISAT2 at [https://usegalaxy.org](https://usegalaxy.org). We do plan to do that as part of a larger project but it won’t be completed for a bit more time. You don’t need to wait. There are two choices: 1. Upload the genome in fasta format and use it as a Custom Reference genome with HISAT2 (and any other tool it is not indexed for) at Galaxy Main [https://usegalaxy.org](https://usegalaxy.org). How-to: [Preparing and using a Custom Reference Genome or Build](https://galaxyproject.org/learn/custom-genomes/). The exact genome used in Galaxy is here (a good place to source from, since the genome is already indexed for some other tools, and using the same exact genome for all steps in the analysis is very important): [http://datacache.galaxyproject.org/](http://datacache.galaxyproject.org/) 2. Use the Galaxy EU [https://usegalaxy.eu/](https://usegalaxy.eu/) server instead, they do have the genome indexed for HISAT2 already. Thanks! ---
