DNA/Protein Database E-mail Network Server in Japan
---------------------------------------------------
12/09/8 DNA Data Bank of Japan
Now, DNA/protein database server for e-mail networks is available from
DNA Data Bank of Japan.
Services provided are functions of database search and retrieval.
For details, see a brief manual attached below.
DDBJ is a governmental organization which was established three years ago
to collect DNA data and to provide research tools to research communities.
Our data collection of DNA is done in collaboration with GenBank and
EMBL Data library. DNA data entered at each site are exchanged between them
by using e-mails.
Under such a collaboration, the GenBank database at the DDBJ includes
the most recent data entries entered by GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ; it is updated
twice a day.
Our site will be reached through Internet, UUNET and Bitnet.

scandir db-name [options] 'keyword[|keyword...]'
Scan directory files of the "db-name" database to find "keywords"
and output entry names and their definitions; keywords should be
represented in the regular expression.
Options:
-i case insensitive
scanjou db-name 'journal'
Scan journal index files of the "db-name" database to find specified
journals and output journal names and corresponding entry names.
Journal names in the command line are not case sensitive.
scanaut db-name 'Last-name,[First.Middle-Initial.]'
Scan author index files of the "db-name" database to find specified
author names and output author names and corresponding entry names
with their definitions.
Author names in the command line are not case sensitive.
scanacc db-name '#acc'
Scan accession number index files of the "db-name" database to find
specified accession numbers and output corresponding entry names
with their definitions.
scandb db-name [-1] [-o] {[entry...]|[-a #acc...]}
Scan the "db-name" database to find specified entries or accession
numbers and output those entries.
Options:
-1 "Entry" or "#acc" may specify multiple entries in the DB.
-o The order of arguments is not significant; the order of entries
output may not be in the order specified in the command line.
