You can query specific databases or subsets while similarity
searching. Options differ by program.

BLASTn |
ONE of the following:
All Sequences – Sequences that are referenced
in documents in CAplusSM,
CAS REGISTRYSM or the GenBank®
databases. See CAS
Coverage of Sequences for more information on CAS sequence
registration policies over the years.
All Referenced Sequences –
Sequences that are referenced in documents in CAplus.
Referenced in at least
one Patent document – Sequences that are referenced
in a patent, patent application or similar document.
Note: They may also be
referenced in other documents, but must be referenced in at
least one patent document.
Referenced in a non-patent
document – Sequences that are referenced in
a CAplus document other than a patent document.
OR one of the GenBank database options:
- All GenBank sequences – Includes
all of the GenBank database subsets
- EST – Expressed Sequence
Tags subset
- STS – Sequence Tagged
Sites subset
- GSS – Genome Survey
Sequences subset
- HTGS – High Throughput
Genomic Sequences subset
- All other GenBank Sequences – GenBank
sequences other than EST, STS, GSS or HTGS
