BLAST Databases-Sapelo2
Blast database
Each database is located at a directory with name pattern as /db/ncbiblast/dbname/month-day-year, where dbname is the name of the database, such as nr, nt, taxdb, refseq_rna, refseq_protein, mouse_genome, human_genome, swissprot, etc.
For example, an nr database downloaded on June 04, 2020 will be available in /db/ncbiblast/nr/06042020.
Available databases:
/db/ncbiblast/human_genome/03012021 /db/ncbiblast/mouse_genome/03012021 /db/ncbiblast/nr/03012021 /db/ncbiblast/nt/03012021 /db/ncbiblast/refseq_rna/03012021 /db/ncbiblast/refseq_protein/03012021 /db/ncbiblast/swissprot/03012021 /db/ncbiblast/taxdb/03012021
Blast database - old version 5
According to https://ncbiinsights.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/tag/blastdbv5/, around Feb. 04, 2020 NCBI dropped the _v5 suffix for the v5 Blast databases.
An old version of the v5 database (download in June 2019) is located at a directory with name pattern as /db/ncbiblast.v5/dbname, where dbname is the name of the database, such as nr, nt, taxdb, refseq_rna, swissprot, etc.
These old versions of the nr and nt databases still have the _v5 suffix, i.e. they are called nr_v5 and nt_v5, respectively.
