An example of the RefSeq accession number format required for reference gene files : NM_013716
Reference gene files retrieve information on the RefSeq data, the NCBI database of curated, non-redundant reference sequences.
The results consist of the following columns (where data is available):
Locus type : description of the type of locus, e.g. gene with protein product, function known or inferred
Status : the type of reference sequence record. Either:
PROVISIONAL: generated automatically from an existing GenBank record and information stored in the LocusLink database;
no curation.
REVIEWED: generated from the most representative, complete GenBank sequence or merge of GenBank sequences and
from information stored in the LocusLink database.
PREDICTED: mRNA from a large-scale sequencing project the CDS has been predicted from the nucleotide sequence,
but usually has not been verified.
MODEL: a model based on NCBI's genomic sequence assembly.
Accession number : the RefSeq accession for a mRNA record.
Product: the name of the product of this transcript.
Official symbol : the symbol used for gene reports.
Offical gene name : the gene description used for gene reports.
Summary : a summary description of the gene, its products, its significance, and mutant phenotypes.
Chromosome : the chromosome assignment
Unigene : the cluster id(s) associated with this gene
Homologene : a link to the NCBI homologene data.
Mgd : a link to the Mouse Genome Informatics data.
Genecards : a link to genecards.
Pubmed : a subset of associated publications.
