GenBank® Update

Sequence-Submission Software

AUTHORIN is free software that facilitates submission of nucleic acid and protein sequences to GenBank, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) Data Library, DNA Data Library of Japan (DDBJ), and Protein Information Resource (PIR). The latest release for IBM PC clones can perform many of the advanced features found in the Authorin Macintosh® version, including those that allow the user to (1) include an amino acid translation of the sequence within a nucleic acid submission file; (2) produce improved submission files that the databanks can process more quickly; (3) identify at a glance the fields that are mandatory on each form; and (4) use the Authorin Quick Guide for frequently asked questions. Because Authorin submissions take less time for the databanks to process, investigators often receive an accession number the same day the sequence is submitted. When ordering AUTHORIN, specify IBM PC or Apple Macintosh format and give mailing address to which software should be sent.
