[Bioperl-l] All mouse mRNAs

[Andrew Walsh]

If you know the accession numbers or gis, you could use Batch Entrez 
from the NCBI web site to do a batch download and then use Bio::SeqIO to 
parse the file (whichever format you choose).

If you don't have the accessions handy, you could try parsing them out 
of the Mm.data file from UniGene (look for lines where SEQTYPE=mRNA).
