A flexible new computer program for handling DNA sequence data.

A compact new computer program for handling nucleic acid sequence data is presented. It consists of a number of different subsets, which may be used according to a given code system. The program is designed for the determination of restriction enzyme and other recognition sites in correlation with translation patterns, and allows tabulation of codon frequencies and protein molecular weights within specified gene boundaries. The program is especially designed for detection of overlapping genes. The language, is FORTRAN and thus the program may be used on small computers; it may also be used without any prior computer experience. Copies are available on request.
