[Genome] MySQL access to genome browser question

[Michael P. Cary]

Hi,

Is there a way to retrieve DNA sequences directly from a MySQL query?  E.g.,
is it possible to write a query to retrieve the sequence from C. elegans
chromosome IV on the positive strand from position 90,232 - 90,554?  I need
to do this for ~100 or so sequences at a time, so using the manual interface
is not really an option for me.

Also, is there a FAQ or something that provides more detail on the direct
MySQL interface?

Thanks,
Mike
