These databases are of particular interest to those working in human genetics; they are currently maintained on an IBM 4341 mainframe computer at Yale University. The databases are: LIT literature citations and abstracted information MAP mapped genes information PROBE information on probes RFLP restriction fragment length polymorphism data CONTACT names and addresses of researchers to contact for probes Online database access is possible from the UK but the IPSS telephone charges have to be paid for by the user. Charges for computer usage are at present absorbed by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. To access the computer from a terminal connected to a PAD on Janet, first call the IPSS Gateway: CALL LON.PSS or CALL 00004000004096 Then, using your PSS account identifier and password call the Yale computer on Telenet: (XX10,SECRET).NFS-31102030002100/GENES At the ENTER CLASS prompt type VMF and press RETURN a few times. When asked ENTER TERMINAL TYPE respond with HCPY The computer now ask for a LOGON userid. You should obtain details of logging on and your own personal password from: Deborah A.
