db_xrefs
The /db_xref
qualifier serves as a vehicle for linking DNA sequence records to other external databases.
The text below outlines the format and the present list of allowed database cross references. Inquiries about the addition of other database types should be made to one of the collaborating databases.
Qualifier: /db_xref="database:identifier" Definition: database cross-reference: pointer to related information in another database Scope: all feature keys Value format: "database:identifier" where database is the name of the database containing related information, and identifier is the internal identifier of the related information according to the naming conventions of the cross-referenced database. Examples: cross reference to GDB identifier: /db_xref="GDB:39999" cross reference to Swiss-Prot entry: /db_xref="Swiss-Prot:P12345"
For all databases types 'Case' is important. All member databases of the International Collaboration (DDBJ, ENA/EBI and GenBank/NCBI) may make recommendations for additions or removal of databases to this list at their convenience, and need not rely on the release cycle of the Feature Table documentation.
Database: Description of database, and type with example(s).
