Do you have workflows that depend on NCBI sequence GIs?
Update them to use Accession.Version instead!

GIs will no longer be included in sequence records as of September 2016.
We will continue using the more human-readable identifier - Accession.Version.
This change will simplify the process of tracking and reporting of sequences.
