Their reply to you might be queued somewhere. NCBI's service is usually very fast. You should notify them (I'll cc them on this) if you're having problems (info@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). As a general rule, everyone should contact the group in charge first. I too have had cases in the past of hearing about system problems from third parties instead of having people contact me directly.

Does anybody have or know where I can get the sequence of Lambda gt22 vector. The reference is Jang H. Han and William J. Rutter (1987) NAR vol 15 no. 15 "Lambda gt22 an improved lamda vector for the directional cloning of full-length cDNA" Any of the other lamda variants would also be a bonus (eg gt11, gt18 etc.) Many thanks, Tony Parsons +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Dr.Tony Parsons, VOX : + 44 304 616871 | | IT Department, FAX : + 44 304 616670 | | Pfizer Central Research, | | Ramsgate Road, +---------------------- e-mail ------------------------+ | Sandwich, |JANET : parsons_a@uk.co.pcr.snd01 | | KENT |Internet : parsons_a@snd01.pcr.co.uk | | CT13 9NJ UK |Compuserve : 100064,765 PSImail:234216700127.parsons_a | +-----------------+----------------------------------------------------------+ From owner-bio-matrix@net.bio.net Wed Nov 11 22:00:00 1992 Path: biosci!ASRR.ARSUSDA.GOV!jkirkbride From: jkirkbride@ASRR.ARSUSDA.GOV ("JOSEPH H.

Dallwitz, CSIRO Division of Entomology, GPO Box 1700, Canberra ACT 2601, Australia, telephone +61 6 246 4075, FAX +61 6 246 4000, Internet delta@ento.csiro.au, is now available as shareware via Internet FTP. To get the DELTA software and associated databases for flowering plants, connect via FTP to HUH.HARVARD.EDU using the id FTP and the password FTP. The DELTA software is now available for three different operating systems: /PUB/SOFTWARE/DELTA/MSDOS DELTA programs for MS-DOS operating system on IBM-compatible microcomputers. /PUB/SOFTWARE/DELTA/OS2 DELTA programs for OS2 operating system on IBM-compatible microcomputers. /PUB/SOFTWARE/DELTA/SUNOS DELTA programs for the SUN operating system. There are two databases available ready to use with the DELTA software (INTKEY) for identification of organism or querying for information. /PUB/SOFTWARE/DELTA/ANGIO Families of flowering plants of the world with emphasis on Australia. /PUB/SOFTWARE/DELTA/GRASS Genera of grasses of the world. In addition there are a number of shareware programs for MS-DOS stored in: /PUB/SOFTWARE/DELTA/GRAHICS These programs are very useful in preparing graphic images for use with the DELTA software.
