Nov 15, 2010 · What is a Reference Sequence (RefSeq)? The NCBI Reference Sequence (RefSeq) project provides sequence records and related information for numerous organisms, and provides a baseline for medical, functional, and comparative studies.

RefSeqGene defines genomic sequences to be used as reference standards for well-characterized genes and is part of the Locus Reference Genomic (LRG) Project.

Jan 4, 2016 · The RefSeq project at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) maintains and curates a publicly available database of annotated genomic, transcript, and protein sequence records (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/refseq/).

Mar 19, 2021 · The Reference Sequence (RefSeq) collection provides a comprehensive, integrated, non-redundant, well-annotated set of sequences, including genomic DNA, transcripts, and proteins.

The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Reference Sequence (RefSeq) database is a collection of genomic, transcript and protein sequence records.

The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Reference Sequence (RefSeq) database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/RefSeq/) provides a non-redundant collection of sequences representing genomic data, transcripts and proteins.

NCBI Reference Sequence accession numbers (or RefSeq accessions) uniquely identify sequence records that NCBI derives from selected GenBank records. GenBank is a highly redundant database.

Jun 20, 2024 · Currently, RefSeq Select is available for the RefSeq human, mouse, and rat annotations, and for prokaryotic genomes. In the future, we plan to provide the RefSeq Select set for additional eukaryotes, including key model organisms and taxa with official nomenclature.

The Reference Sequence (RefSeq) resource created at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) leverages both automatic processes and expert curation to create a robust set of reference sequences of genomic, transcript and protein data spanning the tree of life.
