From: jrl%life@LANL.GOV (John Lawton)

Dear Dr. McClure,

I am responding to your SEQNET bulletin board request for a list of codon
frequency.  This information comes from the LiMB (LIsting of Molecular Biology 
databases) database at Los Alamos Nat'l Lab.  It is a directory of molecular
biology and related databases.  We have no entries for codon frequency of
plants in particular, but hopefully the CUTG database will help you out.
The first set of entries is a description of the LiMB entries line by line.
The information for CUTG follows that.

We will be distributing LiMB free of charge in the next week or so.  If you
would like a copy of it, please send me an e-mail message and let me know 
through which medium you like to receive it  1)e-mail  2)PC floppy disk or
3)hardcopy.

                                      Sincerely,

                                      John Lawton, LiMB Administrator
