We definitely encourage the submission of sequence data via the AUTHORIN
program.

E-mail is the preferable means for submitting data:

     gb-sub at ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

If you are unable to use e-mail, please send a floppy with the data to:

     GenBank Submissions
     National Center for Biotechnology Information
     Bldg. 38A, Room 8N-803
     8600 Rockville Pike
     Bethesda, MD 20894       Phone:  (301) 496-2475

NCBI is distributing free copies of the program for Macs and PCs.
(Current releases are version 3.0 for the Macintosh and version 1.2 for PCs).
For a copy send an e-mail request to:  authorin at ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

Overseas submitters should note that sequences may be submitted to the
EMBL Data Library (datasub at embl-heidelberg.de) and DDBJ (ddbjsub at ddbj.nig.ac.jp). 
All sequence data is exchanged among the databases.
