http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Genbank/

NIH genetic sequence database that provides annotated collection of all publicly available DNA sequences for almost 280 000 formally described species (Jan 2014) .These sequences are obtained primarily through submissions from individual laboratories and batch submissions from large-scale sequencing projects, including whole-genome shotgun (WGS) and environmental sampling projects. Most submissions are made using web-based BankIt or standalone Sequin programs, and GenBank staff assigns accession numbers upon data receipt. It is part of International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration and daily data exchange with European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) and DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) ensures worldwide coverage. GenBank is accessible through NCBI Entrez retrieval system, which integrates data from major DNA and protein sequence databases along with taxonomy, genome, mapping, protein structure and domain information, and biomedical journal literature via PubMed. BLAST provides sequence similarity searches of GenBank and other sequence databases. Complete bimonthly releases and daily updates of GenBank database are available by FTP.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/dbgss/

Database of unannotated short single-read primarily genomic sequences from GenBank including random survey sequences clone-end sequences and exon-trapped sequences. The GSS division of GenBank is similar to the EST division, with the exception that most of the sequences are genomic in origin, rather than cDNA (mRNA). It should be noted that two classes (exon trapped products and gene trapped products) may be derived via a cDNA intermediate. Care should be taken when analyzing sequences from either of these classes, as a splicing event could have occurred and the sequence represented in the record may be interrupted when compared to genomic sequence. The GSS division contains (but is not limited to) the following types of data: * random single pass read genome survey sequences. * cosmid/BAC/YAC end sequences * exon trapped genomic sequences * Alu PCR sequences * transposon-tagged sequences Although dbGSS sequences are incorporated into the GSS Division of GenBank, annotation in dbGSS is more comprehensive and includes detailed information about the contributors, experimental conditions, and genetic map locations.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/HTGS/

Database of high-throughput genome sequences from large-scale genome sequencing centers, including unfinished and finished sequences. It was created to accommodate a growing need to make unfinished genomic sequence data rapidly available to the scientific community in a coordinated effort among the International Nucleotide Sequence databases, DDBJ, EMBL, and GenBank. Sequences are prepared for submission by using NCBI's software tools Sequin or tbl2asn. Each center has an FTP directory into which new or updated sequence files are placed. Sequence data in this division are available for BLAST homology searches against either the htgs database or the month database, which includes all new submissions for the prior month. Unfinished HTG sequences containing contigs greater than 2 kb are assigned an accession number and deposited in the HTG division. A typical HTG record might consist of all the first-pass sequence data generated from a single cosmid, BAC, YAC, or P1 clone, which together make up more than 2 kb and contain one or more gaps. A single accession number is assigned to this collection of sequences, and each record includes a clear indication of the status (phase 1 or 2) plus a prominent warning that the sequence data are unfinished and may contain errors. The accession number does not change as sequence records are updated; only the most recent version of a HTG record remains in GenBank.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 11, 2023. A database for the Anopheles gambiae str. PEST genome that was sequenced using a whole genome shotgun approach. The database aims to contribute to the understanding of mosquito genome structure and organization and will assist the development of malaria control strategies and improved anti-malarial drugs and vaccines. Sequences were generated and assembled into contigs for submission to GenBank.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biosample

Database containing descriptions of biological source materials used in experimental assays. Sources include: GenBank, Sequence Read Archive (SRA), Coriell, ATCC. Submissions are supported by a web-based Submission Portal that guides users through a series of forms for input of rich metadata describing their samples. As the capacity and complexity of biological data sets expands, databases face new challenges in ensuring that the information is adequately organized and described. The NCBI BioSample database is being developed to help address the challenges by providing the means by which data generators can organize and describe a broad range of sample types, and link to corresponding sets of experimental data in archival databases.

Database designed to capture experimental or inferential results that support submitter-provided annotation for sequence data that the submitter did not directly determine but derived from GenBank primary data. Records are divided into two categories: * TPA:experimental: Annotation of sequence data is supported by peer-reviewed wet-lab experimental evidence. * TPA:inferential: Annotation of sequence data by inference (where the source molecule or its product(s) have not been the subject of direct experimentation) TPA records are retrieved through the Nucleotide Database and feature information on the sequence, how it was cataloged, and proper way to cite the sequence information.
