To access the GenBank entry server, simply send an e-mail message containing *only* an entry (locus) name or accession number to the Internet address RETRIEVE@GENBANK.BIO.NET. The GenBank On-Line Service databases will be searched in the order: GenBank New Data, GenBank (current release), EMBL New Data, EMBL (current release), Swiss-Prot (S-P new data will be added in the next month) and the first hit(s) returned to the sender. To access the GenBank FASTA server, send a properly formatted message to SEARCH@GENBANK.BIO.NET. A help file explaining the format is available if you send the message HELP to the SEARCH address. Happy hunting! Sincerely, David Benton GenBank Manager 415-962-7360 benton@genbank.ig.com
