You can search it for keywords by gopher at merlot.welch.jhu.edu in the
--> 12. Search Databases at Welchlab (Vectors, Promoters, NRL-3D, EST, OMIM../
directory as:
--> 6. Kabat Database of Proteins of Immunological Interest <?>
So for example you could search for:
chicken and major and histocompatibility
and so on to retrieve what you're interested in.
You can also do blast searches of the Kabat database via the ncbi
mail-server.
If you've never heard of gopher don't worry it's free and on the net.
Write me a note if you need help getting started with gopher or the mail-
server.
Best of luck,
