title: Sequence analysis of proteins.
abstract: There has been a rapid increase in the number of available protein sequences derived from gene-sequence information. Computer-based sequence analysis of proteins is gaining in importance as an analytical tool. With the help of these analyses such sequences may be characterized and some insights gained into their probable role in the system. The principles involved in computer-based sequence analysis and some of the methods are discussed.
