1GenBank: the NIH genetic sequence database. 2GenBank database of EST sequences (dbEST). 3mRNA sequences derived from the GenBank database (excluding those within the dbEST databank and any predicted from genomic sequences). 4Predicted mRNA sequences derived from genomic sequences deposited in the GenBank database. 5Sequences predicted from genomic DNA assemblies not yet submitted to GenBank. 6The total dataset (accessible via the internet at "The eIF4E-family member database" [35]).
