1. Several clones should have been sequenced. 2. Sequencing should have been performed in both directions. 3. An accession number in a databank should have been obtained. 4. Full length sequences are preferable though not essential. 5. Where possible a paper should have been submitted for publication. 6. DNA or other material, in particular cell lines, should be made available in a publicly accessible repository or at least in the originating laboratory. Documentation on this will be maintained by the Nomenclature Committee.
