The Entrez search and retrieval system now offers a cross-database search that allows a single query to span the traditional NCBI-sequence databases; Nucleotide and Protein; the literature databases, such as PubMed®, PMC, Books, OMIM™, Journals, and MeSH; the structurally-oriented databases, Structures, the Conserved Domain Database, 3D-Domains; the NCBI Taxonomy, Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs), Population Sets, Genomes, Sequence Tagged Sites, UniGene, Gene-centered information (Gene), and, finally, the NCBI Web site itself. The cross database search option, labeled “Entrez” on the NCBI homepage search menu, replaces 'GenBank' as the default. This has been added to Biological Informatics, Deep Web Research and Healthcare Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blogs. This will be added to Healthcare Resources 2004-05 Internet MiniGuide.
