What is the Data Mining View?
The data mining view is a view that combines many modes of searching into one interface. From the data mining view, you can search for items in the public sequence repository; you can search for gene records from Entrez Gene; you can search for annotations in a given view; and you can search for patterns of sequences. The data mining view is on by default, and is available from View -> Data Mining View. It is generally docked along the bottom.
