Adding this information at a later date requires that the database staff identify which submissions correspond to which publications. This task is not always straightforward, for instance, if the accession number is not included in the article, or if the submitted and the published data are not identical. We therefore urge researchers to let us know when and where data they have submitted to us are published, and to include relevant accession numbers in such publications. Each line of the mail message should consist of a single file server command, and nothing else. If the file server receives this command, it will return a help file to the sender, explaining in some detail how to use the facility.
Users can also request specific sequences via the File Server.
Information on how to do this is provided in the HELP file.
