ccession numbers for a new database, the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), are now being added to MEDLINE records when a journal article reports that new data has been added to this database. GEO is a "gene expression/molecular abundance repository supporting Minimum Information About Microarray Experiment (MIAME) compliant data submissions, and a curated, online resource for gene expression data browsing, query and retrieval." Additional information is available at: <a href="//www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/">//www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/</a>. GEO was developed and is maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology (NCBI). It consists of three different types of entries: Platform, Sample, and Series. The Platform record contains lists of elements on an array (such as a oligonucleotide microarray) or a list of elements that may be detected or quantified in the experiment. The Sample record is a description of the handling of a Sample. The Series record defines a set of related Samples.
</p>
<p>
GEO accession numbers have a standard format which consists of one of four prefixes followed by one or more numbers. The four prefixes are:
</p>

<table width="191" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" summary="The four prefixes of GEO accession numbers followed by one or more numbers. ">

</table>
<br />
<br />
<p>
GEO accession numbers will display in the Secondary Source Identifier (SI) field in PubMed's Citation and MEDLINE display formats (and in the &#60;DataBankList&#62; area of the XML format). Here's an example from the Citation display:
</p>
<dl>
<dd>
Secondary Source ID:
<ul>
<li>GEO/GSE3847</li>
</ul>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>
GEO numbers may be searched in PubMed using the [si] search tag in the following ways:
</p>
<ol>
<li>To retrieve a specific accession number:<br />
geo/gse3847 [si]<br />
or, more simply, as:<br />
gse3847 [si] <br /> </li>
<li>To retrieve all GEO accession numbers:<br />
geo [si]
</li>
<li>
Click on the search link in the Citation Display.
</li>
</ol>
<br /><br />

NLM<span class="registered">&#174;</span> began to include GEO accession numbers in citations that have undergone data quality review afer February 8, 2006.
