So what you're looking for is a search where you type in the protein and it gives you the mRNA sequence?

I remember using BLAST as a university student.

http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?PROGRAM=blastp&BLAST_PROGRAMS=blastp&PAGE_TYPE=BlastSearch&SHOW_DEFAULTS=on&LINK_LOC=blasthome

Have you tried their service?

It's what every scientist uses and is most reliable. I remember taking days to learn it, but once you do, it's powerful.

Tell me more about the protein you're searching.

But when I selected 'organism', there were numerous mouse models.. My mice are the NOD white mice.. I am lost Frowning Face
