ARSA search
Since the data addition to ARSA is still underway, so all of the CON and TPA data are not available on the ARSA. Please note that it would be likely to get incorrect results for DDBJ data. The completion of the data addition will be notified in this DDBJ HP.
As the data addition to the ARSA was completed, the correct results are available now (August 16, 18:00).
We apologize very much for your inconvenience, and appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
