I am trying to find out which databases I want to subscribe to (protein and nucleic acid sequences...), and how to subscribe to them. Currently we get the Genbank, PIR, EMBL, Vecbase, and NAQ databases. We get most of them through the folks at GCG, but we would like more frequent updates, so I would like to get us subscriptions to the individual databases themselves. Also... I would like to get the Swiss-prot database, and any other genetic sequence databases that are applicable to DNA/RNA and protein sequence analysis. So... does anyone have the info to sub to these databases (plus cost if avail- able), and suggestions on which additional databases I might be interested in? You can e-mail to me, and I will post a summary if it is desireable. THanks... Keith =============================================================================== Keith O.
