Database to download HMMs for TIGRFAMS and PFAMS ?

Where can I download the actual HMM files used to search for motifs in proteins? On JCVI website I found the seed sequences they used to create the HMMs so I can recreate them one-by-one but it would be annoying to do it for a bunch of HMMs.

The HMM files are under the FTP directories

Pfam HMMs

TIGRFAMs HMMs

I tried that but I didn't have read/write access so I couldn't download the files.

What were your trying? Anyway, just click the link.

I got tigrfam to work but i can't find the files within the pfam ftp
