The DAC email address can be found either in the dbGaP Authorized Access System or on the dbGaP website.

For the former, once logging in to the dbGaP account, go to the “My Requests” tab, the DAC name (such as NHGRI, GAIN, TCGA …) is listed in the “Data set” column of the data request table. Click on the name, the email editor with the DAC email address will be opened.

If your question is about SRA data availability or release status, please see here for more information. The SRA data may include the Next-Gen sequence raw data, BAM files, or other high throughput data. The SRA data distributed through dbGaP is handled and processed by the National Center for Biotechnology Information’s (NCBI’s) SRA group. The SRA group, thus, is in a better position to answer most of the SRA-related questions, especially those about SRA data submission, availability, and quality. The SRA help email address is vog.hin.mln.ibcn@ars (06/14/2011)

The SRA toolkit can be downloaded from here. The best contact for any SRA toolkit related issues is vog.hin.mln.ibcn@sloot-ars, a mailing list documented in every README within the source downloaded by users.
