links from SWISS-PROT to Gramene

[Wei Zhao]

Dear Elisabeth,

The "final" protein page can be linked to directly using the SWISS-PROT
accession number, which is also our primary identifier.
Here is the URL syntax:

http://www.gramene.org/perl/protein_search?acc=XXXXXX
Example 
http://www.gramene.org/perl/protein_search?acc=P93436


For more information, please see
http://www.gramene.org/documentation/linkback.html
and
ftp://www.gramene.org/pub/gramene/protein/linkback/linkback_README

We look forward to seeing links from SWISS-PROT/TrEMBL to Gramene.

Regards,

Wei
