Tip of the Week: Introduction to Changes to NCBI’s Protein Database

14 July, 2010 (10:05) | General Science, Tip of the Week | By: Jennifer


In today’s tip I will introduce you briefly to the changes at NCBI’s Protein database. I highlighted that changes had been made in a Friday SNPets, and someone asked for more details. Our full updated tutorial will be much more complete than this short tip, so be watching for that to be completed in the near future – but for now, enjoy this tip & head over to NCBI to do some exploring of your own!

Why “send” and not “save”,”download” ?
