Summary
- Searches NCBI Nucleotide by organism, gene name, strain, and sequence type; automatically disambiguates genes across species and resolves accession prefixes to the correct database
- Handles RefSeq (NC_, NM_, NP_) and GenBank accessions with intelligent fallback between NCBI and ENA; never attempts ENA queries on RefSeq-only accessions
- Returns detailed sequence profiles including metadata, GC content, annotation summaries, curation levels, and alternative sequences ranked by relevance
- Supports FASTA and GenBank formats with full annotation extraction; provides cross-database references and download instructions for each sequence
