Request for Comments on the Recommendation for the Disclosure of Sequence Listings Using XML (Proposed ST.26)
The United States Patent and Trademark Office (Office) is seeking comments to obtain views of the public on the international effort to revise the standard for the presentation of nucleotide and/or amino acid sequences and the consequent changes to the United States rules of practice. The standard is being revised to require the use of extensible mark-up language (XML) format, to update the standard, and to more closely align requirements of the standard with those of public sequence database providers. Comments may be offered on any aspect of this effort.
