GenomesMacroSend Direct Submission
|
| About this Tool |
This page allows you to send large files for Genomes submissions directly to GenBank. It is provided as an alternative to attaching those files to e-mail messages, which can sometimes lead to e-mail delivery system problems such as encoded or corrupted messages, or to file truncation that can occur with very large files. The files may be .sqn submission files, prepared by Sequin or tbl2asn, or the .fsa sequence and .tbl table files used by tbl2asn, or .agp files that describe how to put components together to build a CON record. The files may be compressed, to allow faster transfer times.
| What to Submit |
Use this tool to send one or more files to GenBank for the submission or update of your
prokaryotic or eukaryotic genome submission. This tool should not be used to submit other
sequences to GenBank, including complete organelles, complete viruses or complete bacteriophages.
You may submit those complete genomes for regular GenBank processing via
SequinMacroSend.
Do not use either of these tools to submit EST,
GSS, or STS data.
The "Browse..." function below allows you to select the file you want to submit. Click on "Add more files..." each time you need to choose another file to be uploaded.
Submission files can include:
Sequin (*.sqn) ASN.1 files, which can be generated with Sequin
(by choosing "Prepare Submission" under the File menu) or the tbl2asn Sequin
utility (a command line program that automates parts of the submission process
for multiple submissions or for large sequences, such as complete genomes)
the input files for tbl2asn - *.tbl, *.fsa, etc.
AGP files which describe how to put components together to build a CON record.
| Completing this Form |
Please provide the information requested in the individual fields below (*=required). In the 'Comments' box, indicate the number of files being uploaded. If this is a new submission, include whether it is a complete or incomplete genome and whether it is annotated or not.
Click on the 'Submit' button to upload your files, and they will be sent to the GenBank Genomes staff for processing.
| Confirmation of Receipt and Temporary ID number |
Immediately after completing the form, you will receive an automatically generated email, informing you that we have received your files. The subject line of this email will include a submission's temporary identifier, a DSub number. This is not the final accession number and therefore should not be used for publication. Until you receive your GenBank accession number, please include your DSub number in any communication with GenBank staff about the submission.
| Processing of your Submission |
Once we receive your genome submission, a member of the Genomes staff will conduct an initial review of it and will contact you by email, usually within three working days. If you have not heard from us within this time-frame and wish to inquire about the status of your submission, please send an e-mail to genomes@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov. Please be sure to state the e-mail address that you provided below and that you submitted using the GenomesMacroSend submission tool. In addition, include the submission's DSub number.
| Register Project |
Please register your project with the Genome Project database at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/mpfsubmission.cgi , if you have not already done so. If you have changes for a project that is already registered, send them to genomes@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov and include the Genome Project ID.
| Need Help? |
If you have questions about using this tool or need help with Sequin or tbl2asn, please contact GenBank User Support at 301-496-2475 or send an email to info@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov .
