yeast database for BLAST

[francis at NCBI.NLM.NIH.GOV]

Last week in Madison, a few people told me that it would be convenient
for them if the new blastable Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) data
files (in FASTA format) where available for FTP so they could run them
locally.

We don't have these files updated with any update of the component
records (at this time), but if people want to use these, we are happy
to make them available.  They are at:

ftp://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/db/yeast.nt.Z
ftp://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/db/yeast.aa.Z

We do plan to be updating these in the future, on a regular basis.

regards to all,

francis
