Dear colleagues,
Here is an update of the BLAST page we maintain at:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/unfin_databases.html
which highlights 18 unfinished microbial genomes which are now
available for BLAST searches at NCBI on the 'BLAST WITH MICROBIAL
GENOMES' page, reachable from the BLAST home page at:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST/
In addition we have now incuded all the *finished* microbial genomes,
providing users with a uniform interface for blasting at the same time
with finished and/or unfinished microbial genomes.
There are now 34 genomes available from this BLAST page.
These are outlined below.
As always, we strongly welcome comments and suggestions about this service.
We welcome all (unfinished or finished) bacterial genomes at NCBI.
. Unfinished genomes will appear on this www pages and are *not*
exchanged within the DNA sequence database collaboration (they do not
have accession numbers and are not part of DDBJ, EMBL or GenBank).
. Finished genomes are added to this page, and also processed, accesioned
and exchanged with DDBJ and EMBL and will appear in GenBank.
See Entrez's genome page (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Entrez/) where
these are highlighted.
Information on how to submit finished or unfinished microbial genomes to NCBI
can be obtained from our service desk (info at ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).
Special thanks to NCBI's Ilene Mizrachi and Tom Madden for working on
these pages.
regards to all,
francis
