[Computer analysis of viral genomic structural organization by sequence scanning].
The results of testing the author's computer program for viral genomic sequences scanning (program Scangene) are presented in the paper. It has been shown on model nucleotide sequences as well as on genomic and predicted protein sequences of tobamo-, potex- and bromoviruses that the program is suitable for the quick revealing of identical, similar and specific sequence elements such as direct, inverted and regular repeats, deletions/insertions, GC/AT-containing sites, fixed intervals between common sites of identical aminoacids in viral coat proteins etc. Characteristics and prospective application of the sequence scanning procedures are discussed.
