title: An algorithm to predict 3' intron splice sites in Plasmodium falciparum genomic sequences.
abstract: A new algorithm, PfAGSS, for predicting 3' splice sites in Plasmodium falciparum genomic sequences is described. Application of this program to the published P. falciparum chromosome 2 and 3 data suggests that existing programs result in a high error rate in assigning 3' intron boundaries.
