Homo sapiens genome reference file based on GRCh37

The Broad Institute created a human genome reference file based on GRCh37. This reference is often referred to as b37 (Homo_sapiens_assembly19.fasta, MD5sum: 886ba1559393f75872c1cf459eb57f2d). When people at The Broad Institute's Genomics Platform refer to the hg19 reference, they are actually referring to b37. This reference contains some alterations from the baseline reference from the Genome Reference Consortium. These alterations largely consist of contig name changes, however there are known sequence differences on some contigs as well.
