-
(month) A rolling month database consisting of nucleotide or protein sequences added to nr in the last 28 days; (nr) a nonredundant nucleotide (or protein) database of all sequences, excluding ESTs, STSs, GSSs, and HTGs; (emnew) new EMBL entries since latest release; (emall) all EMBL entries, latest release + new (other FASTA database acronyms are derived from the EMBL division to which they correspond).
