Hi there,

although I have no idea what these 5S, 16S or 30S RNA sequences are
(I'm into Machine Learning), but I'd like to play around with some
sequences like this if it's not too much trouble getting them in
machine-readable form.

Are there anonymous FTP sites for stuff like that? Or could somebody
send some via e-mail?

Answers geatly appreciated,
	Christian
