Change in Definition Lines for Predicted Records

The label "PREDICTED" has been added to the title of RNA records with accessions beginning with "XM_" and "XR_" and to the title of protein accessions beginning with "XP_" to indicate that these sequences are derived from genomic placements and not directly from a cDNA. The label "PREDICTED" does not indicate that the gene itself is predicted, although it may be. The "PREDICTED" label appears in the definition lines seen in retrievals from Entrez , as shown below, and in BLAST results.

GenBank format in Entrez:
LOCUS XM_038604 4998 bp mRNA linear PRI 23-AUG-2004
DEFINITION PREDICTED: Homo sapiens unc-13 homolog A (C. elegans) (UNC13A), mRNA.
