[bionet.software] retrieval of protein sequence from PIR?

TAO%OPUS@mcoiarc.bitnet (03/30/91)

Dear netters,

I need help on protein sequence retrieval.  What I have are the accession no.s

from FASTA output, which gives accession no.s in PIR database.  However, I

only know how to retrieve certain sequence from EMBL, which don't have the PIR

databse.  Could any fellow netter give me a helping hand on from which server

I could retrieve these sequences?

Thanks in advance.

The PIR Fileserver (FILESERV@GUNBRF) offers e-mail retrieval of PIR
sequences.  They are also available from the UH Gene-Server; send the
line
        Subject: send pir-help
to
        gene-server%bchs.uh.edu@CUNYVM
from bitnet or
        gene-server@bchs.uh.edu
from the Internet.
