title: Application of FirstEF to find promoters and first exons in the human genome.
abstract: Predicting first exons and promoters is an important part of gene finding in DNA sequence analysis. This unit presents FirstEF as a method for predicting the first exons and promoters. A combines FirstEF predictions with other information such as cDNA/EST matches.
