Version 3 of the FASTA packages contains many programs for searching DNA and
|
|
protein databases and one program (prss3) for evaluating statistical
|
|
significance from randomly shuffled sequences. Several additional analysis
|
|
programs, including programs that produce local alignments, are available as
|
|
part of version 2 of the FASTA package, which is available as the port
|
|
biology/fasta.
|
|
|
|
FASTA is described in: W. R. Pearson and D. J. Lipman (1988), "Improved
|
|
Tools for Biological Sequence Analysis", PNAS 85:2444-2448; W. R. Pearson
|
|
(1996) "Effective protein sequence comparison" Meth. Enzymol. 266:227-258;
|

Pearson et. al. (1997) Genomics 46:24-36; Pearson, (1999) Meth. in
|
|
Molecular Biology 132:185-219.

The FASTA3 suite is distributed freely subject to the condition that it may
|
|
not be sold or incorporated into a commercial product.
