If you are interested in vertebrate NCRs, HOVERGEN is a database of
all vertebrate genes in which gene structure information is declared,
including introns and non coding flanking regions. It is easily
searchable with QUERY_WIN, a graphical interface for recovering
sequences in data bases structured under ACNUC.
