title: Biopython: freely available Python tools for computational molecular biology and bioinformatics.
abstract: CONCLUSIONS
  The Biopython project is a mature open source international collaboration of volunteer developers, providing Python libraries for a wide range of bioinformatics problems. Biopython includes modules for reading and writing different sequence file formats and multiple sequence alignments, dealing with 3D macro molecular structures, interacting with common tools such as BLAST, ClustalW and EMBOSS, accessing key online databases, as well as providing numerical methods for statistical learning.
  
  
  BACKGROUND
  Biopython is freely available, with documentation and source code at (www.biopython.org) under the Biopython license.
