title: A computer program package for storing and retrieving DNA/RNA and protein sequence data.
abstract: A computer program package has been made available which contains five compound programs written in FORTRAN 10 (for DECsystem-10). Program DATBAS is for storing and improving DNA sequence data, especially those obtained by the sequencing method using M13 phages. Programs NUCDAT and PROTEN are for analyzing DNA/RNA and protein sequence data, respectively. They contain various options to help users in analyzing DNA/RNA and protein sequence data. With program NUCDAT, it is also possible to get access to the EMBO Nucleotide Data Library. This can be achieved by running program COPY to create two data files from the library. Program LITRAT enables users to prepare a scientific literature file convenient for writing scientific articles, and program STRAIN for storing information concerning bacterial and/or plasmid strains.
