One is the Eukaryotic Promoter Database (EPD) and the other is the the Transcription Factor Database (TFD). You can get info on these by mailing the following to the server at EMBL: Address: netserve@embl.bitnet content of mail message: DIR TFD DIR EPD HELP TFD HELP EPD The EMBL server will then mail you files on how to get and use the files. I believe that these files can also be obtained at one of the following FTP sites: NCBI.NLM.NIH.GOV MENUDO.UH.EDU IUBIO.BIO.INDIANA.EDU Best regards, Don Lehn -- comp.archives file verification ncbi.nlm.nih.gov total 18 dr-xr-xr-x 2 4006 512 Jun 4 17:50 tarfiles dr-xr-xr-x 3 4006 512 Jun 3 23:39 tfd.ascii dr-xr-xr-x 2 4006 512 Jun 3 20:29 tfd.asn1 dr-xr-xr-x 2 4006 512 Jun 3 20:25 sigscan-data dr-xr-xr-x 2 4006 512 Jun 3 20:25 macvector-data dr-xr-xr-x 2 4006 512 Jun 3 20:25 gcg-data dr-xr-xr-x 2 4006 512 Jun 3 20:24 dynamic-data -r--r--r-- 1 4006 5329 Jun 3 20:18 README.3.0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 4006 512 Jun 3 20:14 fasta-data dr-xr-xr-x 2 4006 512 Jun 3 20:06 Release-Notes dr-xr-xr-x 2 4006 512 Jul 30 1990 software -r--r--r-- 1 4006 1726 Jun 1 1990 COPYRIGHT found tfd ok ncbi.nlm.nih.gov:/repository/TFD/
