I would like to know if there is a free software to recording EEG
signals with PC Windows, and if there is an schematic electronic of
hardware for this EEG.
Thank you

                        Objects in Bioinformatics-
         Reusable Software Components and Distributed Computing
                        for the Biological Sciences.

                         18th and 19th June 1997,
            European Bioinformatics Institute, Cambridge, UK.

               http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~alan/Meeting/OiB.html


Announcing a two day meeting on the role of reusable object-oriented
software components and distributed objects in bioinformatics and the
biological sciences. The widget and object-oriented approach is a
powerful paradigm in which new applications are developed by utilising
pre-existing components interacting in concert, and offers the
possibility of a new generation of bioinformatic tools. In this way
development time is reduced and greater time is spent on data analysis
and knowledge discovery.

The meeting is aimed at those who are interested in, are developing, or
have developed reusable software components that will be of use to the
bioinformatics and biological community. It will also address the
implication and application of distributed object technology to biology
and bioinformatics.

The meeting will include lectures, presentations, poster sessions and
discussion groups on the rapidly expanding and developing fields of
software components and distributed computing from both an academic and
industrial perspective.

Invited talks will cover the application of reusable components,
software libraries, distributed object technology, data visualisation
and the bioWidget Consortium.

Poster stands, each with a dedicated networked computer, are available 
upon which delegates may showcase their work and projects. Participants
are encouraged to submit a brief abstract for a poster relevant to the 
meeting themes. There will be prizes for the best poster presentations.

Full details about the meeting may be accessed at -

                http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~alan/Meeting/OiB.html

The meeting is organised by the European Bioinformatics Institute in
association with the bioWidget Consortium. The meeting will be held in
the newly completed conference facilities at the Wellcome Trust Genome 
Campus in the grounds of Hinxton Hall, Cambridge, UK.

We'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has recently purchased a PTI
ratiometric imaging system.  We own two PTI systems which use DeltaRAM
monochromators and Photometrics Sensys 1400 CCD cameras controlled by
ImageMaster 2.0 software.  It would be useful to "compare notes" with other
users of this system, especially with regard to the software.

Thanks for any and all replies.

Depending on your budget, the GCG package is probably the
best commercial package. See

http://www.gcg.com/

It you have a small or nonexistant budget, but have some 
knowledge of programming,  you can put together a comprehensive
package using publicly available programs. That's exactly what
I've done on our Sun Unix system. See the BIRCH Web site at

Howdy all, 

we have a Shimadzu LC10 HPLC system with a SPD-M10AV diode-array detector.

only recently have we started using this in the visible range, but there
is NO spectra being recorded by the class software. Has anyone else had
this problem (spectra up to 300nm are fine)

Any help would be appreciated, especially replying by email.

I had the same problem: try www.nottinghill.com.

It also took me a few seconds to realise that it requires that you have
JavaScript turned on in your browser.  Whether you want to activate this,
given the rather patchy nature of its security, is left as an exercise to
the reader. However, the text only pages seem to work okay.

It might also be useful to point out that the free software is only for
Win32 and Win95.  Not much use for me and my SG Indy.

All the CD instrument manufacturers supply programs that will do this.

One public domain program I know of is available at
http://www-structure.llnl.gov/cd/cdtutorial.htm
I haven't tried it myself.  

I believe Gerald Fasman (Brandeis) also has a program he has released
into the public domain.  You could try e-mailing him at
fasman@binah.cc.brandeis.edu

I am looking for a perl script that will convert Entrez or Ovid (they
are slightly different) Medlars tagged format to unix refer/bib
format.  Something that would make it easy to include or exclude
abstracts would be helpful.

When I have downloaded from the Entrez browser most of my programs does
not display the full filename and that is a pain. Another thing that was
irritating was whenever I had to paste my sequences into e.g. the FASTA
search form.

I therefore made a file utility that finds all sequence formats
downloaded from the Entrez browser and sorts them into different lists
by fileformat. The first line of the file format is displayed for each
imported sequence (works pretty good, because all the important info is
in this line) and then you can copy the list or selected items from it
to the clipboard just by pressing a button.

The program have several other features and it saves me a lot of time.

You can get the program for free if you mail me or maybe you have some
server space where it can reside...I have only 15 MB and that is already
filled up with my patch clamp analysis program PREADER

I'm probably going to buy :

which is volume 266 of the Methods of Enzymology series,
(Academic Press). Are there any other books that you
like?

If you mean testing for Hardy-Weinberg proportions, there are a number
of packages that do that, such as GDA.  Check Patrick Phillips's
very useful evolutionary genetics web site EP-GED:

http://wbar.uta.edu

which has lists of evolutionary genetics software.

	Well, I'm not using a bulk mail programme but... ClustalW and
ClustalX can do that. Using the profile alignment system, you input
an alignment which is used as a profile, and you can easily (very
easily with ClustalX) add new sequences to a fixed alignment. Note
that if the new sequence diverge, you will have to add gaps to your
existing profile, but the alignement between original sequences is
maintained.

	Just try ClustalX and let us know:
	ftp://ftp-igbmc.u-strasbg.fr/ClustalX/

					Hope this helps,
							Francois.

P.S.: The profile alignement method from Clustal is not so slow,
it depends of the machine and system you have.

It's not a perl script, and it's not free, but if you can't come up with
an easy solution you might consider our PAPYRUS bibliographic database
program. It only costs $99, can import Entrez, Ovid, or pretty much any
other source of bibliographic references, and can reformat and output the
data any way you like, including refer/bib.

If you're interested, please take a look at our Web site, or e-mail me for
more information.

Hello!

As my subject line indictaes, I am interested in any advice or information
concerning the searching of DNA sequences for various motifs such as
protein binding sites, promoter elements, etc.

I am hoping that there is some sort of software package that uses a large
database of such motifs to scan query sequences.

I have heard of something called "Motif" which may or may not be what I am
looking for.  Although, I think that it may be a a part of GCG, which I'd
like to avoid if at all possible.  However, if that is my only choice,
I'll just have to grin and bear it!

Thank you, in advance, for you help...

JAVA APPLET FOR PRESENTATION OF KNOWLEDGES ON GENETIC NETWORKS.

The essential progress in study of the molecular mechanisms
of organisms individual development results in discovery of
a hundreds genes, which sole function consist in the control
and regulation of other genes activity. These genes comprise
 so called "genetic networks". 

As the genes networks consist of tens of genes involved in
complex regulatory interactions it is necessary to develop a
special tools for their graphical presentation. 

We develop Java applet for graphical presentation of information on 
gap genetic network in fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster.

Our program
(http://www.csa.ru/Inst/gorb_dep/inbios/genet/Graph/genes.html)
represents genes as  rectangles. The interacting genes are connected
by arrows. Clicking on gene leads to its activation and bringing out
its relations with other genes. Red arrows connect gene with upstream
genes of network, blue arrows - with downstream genes. Filled and hollow
arrows reflect the
mode of gene action - activation and repression correspondingly.

 It  is possible to drag genes for better visualization of links
between them. 

In parallel to emphasizing the links clicking on gene activates the
appearance of
lists of upstream and downstream genes in pop-up menu windows. These
genes are linked
to GeNet database
(http://www.csa.ru/Inst/gorb_dep/inbios/genet/genet.htm) entries, 
containing the information about them. Thus the selection of the gene
from the menu
calls out the information about it.

Special filters permit selective visualization of the interaction of
genes controlling
different parts of the embryo body.

The applet source code is available.

We highly appreciate any suggestions and comments.

\subsection {Development of tools for presentation of knowledge on gene
networks}

The essential progress in
study of the molecular mechanisms of organisms individual
development results in discovery of a hundreds genes, which sole function
consist in the control and regulation of other genes
activity. These genes comprise so called "genes networks". 
Gene networks
serve to orchestrate the genome activity during embryo
development.

As the genes networks consist of tens of genes involved in
complex regulatory interactions it is necessary to develop a
special tools for their graphical presentation. We design such
a tool using Java programming language.

Our program (http://www.csa.ru/Inst/gorb\_dep/inbios/genet/Graph/genes.html)
represents genes as  rectangles (fig.1). The 
interacting genes are connected by arrows. Clicking on
gene leads to its activation and bringing out its relations
with other genes. Red arrows connect gene with upstream genes of network, blue
arrows - with downstream genes. Filled and hollow arrows reflect the
mode of gene action - activation and repression correspondingly. It
 is possible to
drag genes for better visualization of links between them. 

In parallel to emphasizing the links clicking on gene activates
the appearance of lists of upstream and
downstream genes in pop-up menu windows. These genes are linked
to GeNet database entries, containing the information about
them. Thus the selection of the gene from the menu calls
out the information about it.

Special filters permit selective visualization of the
interaction of genes controlling different parts of the embryo body.

SAS can perform this analysis because it allows you to specify the
correct error term for each factor.  Any software that can specify error
terms will therefore also 'perform' split split plot analysis.  A PC
based software I use that can do this is Statistica.

Hi,
I am working on Impala population genetics, and need a window (PC)
program for manual aligning. A program that have colors for each base
(as in Seq Pub) and that have other features such as; consensus, show
complement string and which can deal with different sequence formats.
All in all a program similar to seq pub (for example a PC version of seq
app), but without the bugs of Seq Pub for windows.

Thanks, Louise, Dept of Population Biology, University of Copenhagen

We just installed a digidata 1200B board in our new Dell Pentium Pro 200
and Axoscope will not accept IRQ 15, saying it is in use by something else.
 Win95 system properties reports IRQ as being free.  Freeing other IRQs
(10, 11) and trying them also failed to work. This board worked fine on
IRQ15 on our older Dimension 150.  pClamp6, which needs no IRQ, also works,
so the board is fine.  Any ideas?

The Biology division is once again reviewing how it does facility chargebacks,
and as part of that the powers that be want to know how at least two other
Universities recover costs for their Protein/DNA analysis facilities.  As
is typical of such things, they allotted me a total of two days to gather
this information :-(. So, I would greatly appreciate it if any of you who
run a central GCG (or Staden, or whatever) analysis facility would share
your billing methods with me. 

(FYI: currently we charge $3.00/hour for connect/batch time, and make up the
remainder of costs from general Division funds.)

Thank you,

I've heard of an easy to use, small, freeware program, which is able to
determine if a given PCR- or sequencing-primer is any good. 

It should check inhibitory factors like dimers, stem-loop structures
etc. which may impair proper hybridization.

Please respond to me directly, and thanks in advance.

Dear Dr.Steve ;

IRQ 15 is used by IDE2 on motherboard to work with it you may disable
secondry IDE option from the motherboard setup utility or setup software
, but be sure that you do not have any other divice use IRQ 15 like
CD-drive connected to secondary IDE .........

The programs "align" and "align0" that are part of the FASTA 
distribution will let you align two DNA sequences.  It is free, and 
Macintosh binaries of the FASTA programs are available.

You can retrieve the fasta programs from:
ftp://ftp.virginia.edu/pub/fasta

For multiple alignments on a Mac, you might consider using ClustalX,
available from ftp://ftp-igbmc.u-strasbg.fr/pub/ClustalX. Mac68k and
PowerPC binaries are available.

Hi , Perhaps you can say what type of use (e.g. 3D reconstruction, 2D
image processing)/computer systems you have in mind. 

Examples of 2D tools are NIH image (sorry cant recall reference).
Also look at http://biocomp.arc.nasa.gov/3dreconstruction/software/

Try ImageTool (http://ddsdx.uthscsa.edu/dig/itdesc.html) or NIH-Image
(Mac: http://rsb.info.nih.gov/nih-image/) (IBM-PC:
NIH-Homepage/News/Scion-Image-PC).

Both are well tested programms and you get them for free.

We use Image-Pro Plus from Media Cybernetics. It is a very flexible
toolbox for analysis of static 2D images. For dynamic analysis of
moving images, we use EthoVision (our own development). Feel free to
contact me directly if you need more details.

Hi, Peter,
You can get a useful software "Amplify" for PCR from;
url: http://www.wisc.edu/genetics/CATG/amplify/index.html.
And I suggest good Web site; 
url: http://genome-www2.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/SGD/web-primer
for designing PCR and sequencing primers.
Please try. Good luck! Bye.

HI!

Take a look at:

http://www.hytti.uku.fi/~kiviraum/plasmid/plasmid.html

Plasmid Processor is a simple tool for plasmid presentation for scientific and
educational purposes.

Plasmid Processor is freeware, so you can use and distribute it freely.

You can download full executable version of Plasmid Processor 1.02 for Windows
at 

http://www.uku.fi/~kiviraum/plasmid/plasp102.zip

Your colleague John Easterby (jse@liverpool.ac.uk) should be able to
help you on this one! Take a look at his pages at
http://www.liv.ac.uk/~jse/software.html and
http://www.bi.umist.ac.uk/Staff/Academia/RJB/Buffers/Bufbook.html.

I haven't yet looked at his book myself, but I read a very complimentary
review of it recently. It seems to be mainly (or exclusively) concerned
with pH, but the same principles apply to pCa, and I don't see any
obvious reason why the program couldn't be modified to calculate pCa.

My own program described in Biochem. J. (1976) 159, 1-5 could certainly
do these calculations, but as it is a Fortran program for running on
mainframes (and not at all friendly by modern standards), I doubt if it
would satisfy you. In any case, I'm not sure how easily I could dig out
a copy. I mention it here only because it wouldn't be especially
difficult to rewrite it to modern standards, and I could probably be
persuaded to do it if there were a demand.

"align2aa", a perl program to do this, is available via my web page (below).
It reads input via readseq, and should work 'most anywhere Perl is installed.

WRT recommendation for Plasmid Processor.  I must concur that this is a
really nice program.  In spite of its limitations, it produces a very nice
plasmid schematic without a lot of fuss.  I highly recommend it as well.

I have coded a little program that should compile on most unix machines
for introducing gaps into DNA sequences according to where they appear
in an amino acid alignment.  It is available as C source code or
compiled for the PowerPC at:

ftp://ftp.nhm.ac.uk/pub/gcua/Putgaps

Its neither elegant nor fancy (none of my code is!) and I cannot provide
any guarantees, but...

Bill Pearson also distributes a program called mrtrans (I think) which
also does this.  It is available from:

ftp://ftp.virginia.edu/  (I hope that's correct).

regards,

James.

p.s. read the documentation with putgaps!!!

YOUR HELP IS URGENTLY NEEDED PLEASE

Dear friend,

My name is Mike Chenard, and I am a student here in Thunder Bay, Ontario,
Canada, with another year to go before graduating with my college diploma.
I am sending you this e-mail because I urgently and desperately need your
HELP.

The summer job opportunities for students in my community are less than
adequate, and are caused by an extremely slow economic recovery from our
recent recession. For every summer job available for a student,
approximately 60 applications are received. I have personally submitted 87
resumes for minimum wage jobs' without even receiving a response.

The total cost for my last year at the college will cost me $14,000.
Without the possibility of obtaining a summer job to help me finance this
cost, I will not be able to complete my last year of education. Therefore,
I will not be able to fulfill my dream of graduating with a college diploma.

Face with this situation, I am appealing for your help and generosity.
Although my pride will suffer from this request, I need to keep my
education as my priority. I am asking you (more like begging you) to help
me by sending me $5, or whatever you feel you can afford, to help finance
my last year at the college. I figure that your generosity plus all others
who help me, will allow me to fulfill my dream of obtaining my college
diploma.

Please send $5 or whatever amount you feel you can afford to:

Mike Chenard
337 Lark Street
Thunder Bay, Ontario
Canada, P7B 1P4

I wish to express my sincere thank's for your support toward my education.
Please feel happy and full of pride with the knowledge that you have help a
student fulfill his dream of completing his education.

Let me sincerely thank you for your help.


Mike Chenard

I am trying to find a way of loading scan data onto an SGI machine for
volume rendering.  The data is obtained from both MRI & CT scanners, mainly
Siemens & General Electric, from various hospitals.  The SGI is an Indigo2
High Impact R10,000 in a fairly isolated environment, where FTP or ISDN
probably won't be practical.
Ideally I would like to able to hook up a magneto-optical drive to the SGI
which would read the mo disks.  However, nobody I have spoken to seems to
be able to know of such a device.  It seems likely that a Pioneer SH7101 or
SH9101 will load Siemens data on a Sun Sparc workstation, which might be an
option if I can get access to a Sun, but it seems unlikely that these
drives will talk to a SGI.

Does anybody know of any solutions to this problem ?

GeneDoc allows you to import new sequences to an alignment file
manually align them. Hope this helps. Available for PC/Windows.

I don't know the whole answer but the images would have to be DICOM

Dear collegues,

I am using my internet connection quite a lot. Until now I have been
working on a PowerMac 6100/60 using the classic network protocol with
system 7.5.5 to go to internet. Some days ago I changed to system 7.6.1 and
now I have to use OpenTransport 1.1.2.
	However, I have great problems to go over our firewall with it,
something is wrong during daytime although it works perfectly during the
night and on weekends. I have heard that there was somewhere a OT tuner or
modifier or something that influences IP package sending.
	Has anybody heard about it or seen a similar problem? Please feel
free to send this mail to perhaps more adequate mailing lists, asking them
to send the answer to my personal mail address.

Thank you very much in advance!

Sincerely		Peter

Somebody knows about any other alternative database or program to

Good day

Is there any www site where we can compare a sequence to eukaryote sequences

Most statistical software would probably be able to do it. SPSS
will do it, most easily in recent releases (7.0 and above). It's
unlikely that software will have commands specialized so that
they're called anything like this, but the model would be
estimable in many procedures that to ANOVA models.

True enough, if the original questioner meant public domain in the
strict legal sense. But if he just meant stuff he could use for his own
purposes (without passing it on to others) then the Preface to Numerical
Recipes explicitly allows this (p. xiii in the 1986 Fortran/Pascal
edition): "Although this book and its programs are copyrighted, we
specifically authorize you, a reader of the book, to make one
machine-readable copy of each program for your own use...".

Personally I find the discussion of numerical methods in the book
excellent, but the programs themselves virtually incomprehensible
because of the meaningless names given to most of the variables. So what
I do is to read the text carefully and then write programs that I can
understand on that basis rather than try to use the programs as
supplied. (Legalists may like to note that that procedure is likewise
authorized and even recommended by the authors: "If you analyze the
ideas contained in a program, and then express those ideas in your own
distinct implementation, then that new program implementation belongs to
you.")

I don't think the image format has anything to do with being able to
read the images or not. You only need a MO drive that can talk to your
Indigo. As far as I know, you have one external SCSI-2 connector on
your Indigo to which you can connect your MO. Ask SGI for a list of
drives that are compatible with your system. DICOM is the file format,
it is not critical for reading /writing the MO. You should check what
filesystem is used when the disk is written however.

Get the FASTA source from ftp.virginia.edu.  It is trivial to modify 
the source for the ALIGN program within the FASTA package to use 
input sequences of any desired length.  Note that Bill Pearson doesn't 
recommend that this be done - as smaller alignments will likely be 
missed.  However I regularly use ALIGN for pairwise alignments of 
sequences that are in the range of 100 - 200 kb.

Except that Numerical Recipes source code is emphatically *not* in the
public domain.

Try NETLIB (http://netlib2.cs.utk.edu/) for public domain Fortran
implementations of numerical code, including FFTs.

Hi all,

I have the GDE 2 binaries installed on an Intel box running RedHat
Linux 4.1 (ELF). I installed the required X libraries and put the
binaries in /usr/local/bin/GDE and the help/data files in
/usr/local/lib/GDE. 

When I run GDE all seems fine- the window appears and the menus look
fine, but creating a new sequence causes a crash with the message:

UniqueID(): Failed to get host name.

Also, when I open an existing sequence nothing appears in the editor
window. 

I would be interested in hearing how anyone has set GDE up on their
Linux system. I have considered building new binaries from the source
myself, but the download always stalls before completion. Maybe there
is a European mirror?

Thanks for any advice.

Hi people,

Given a protein domain structure (100 amino acids) we would like to search
for similar domains in (a) 1 protein (b) the entire sequence databases.
The problem is of course that there is no solved structure for (a) and
most of (b).... so some form of prediction, threading or modelling will
have to be done as part of the search/comparison.

Ideas?  I can't find exactly what I want on the Web, although the most
excellent PredictProtein service in Heidelberg may do what we want.
We're looking for either an internet-based resource, or a standalone that
will run under Unix or MacOS.

Thanks, please followup to bionet.software so that everyone can see if
there is a solution.

CABUFFER software is available at IUBio archive,
in folder /molbio/ibmpc/ as cabufzip.exe.  It works on MSDOS systems. 
IUBio archive is {ftp,http}://iubio.bio.indiana.edu/

From the readme files  ---

This program allows you to
calculate the concentrations of all ionic species present in a mixture
of up to four divalent cations (e.g. Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) and four ligands
("buffers") for these ions.  Examples of such buffers are EDTA, EGTA,
NTA, HEDTA, citrate, Ca-binding proteins, etc.  Corrections for
temperature, ionic stength and pH are provided.

The CABUFFER program, Basic source code files, data files, and explanatory
text files all reside in one self-extracting, compressed archive file named
cabufzip.exe.

    ANNOUNCING THE NEW PPC VERSION OF 'FOLDIT (LIGHT) v.4.2.6¹
  a molecular modelling freeware for MacOS compatible computers.
   €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€   FREEWARE   €€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€€

                     Enhanced PPC version


DOWNLOAD

* ŒFoldIt (light) v.4.2.6¹ can be downloaded from the following address:
              ftp://ftp.imag.fr/pub/TIMC/FoldIt.html
* ŒFoldIt (light) Files¹ can also be downloaded from the same address (it
contains a set of 20 protein structure files).


WHAT 'FOLDIT (LIGHT)' DOES?

'FoldIt (light)' is a molecular modelling program to visualize and
manipulate proteins. 'FoldIt (light)' is an interactive program with a
user friendly interface. The goal of this program was to build an
integrated environment in which statistical analysis as well 3D
observations could be realized on PDB files without having to transfer
files or swap machines. Our major underlying research project is still to
try to improve the folding prediction methods (hence the name 'FoldIt').
This is also the sole desactivated feature in this released version (hence
the adjective '(light)').
'FoldIt (light)' is intented to provide the possibility to analyze
proteins up to 1600 residues in size, to visualize and manipulate them
interactively. It can directly read any protein coordinate text file from
the Brookhaven Protein Data Bank (PDB) (Bernstein et al., 1977) including
hetero-atoms and water molecules.
'FoldIt (light)' has two main windows: a color image window to display the
protein structure and a text window to record the result of all operations
requested by the user.
The protein structure can be manipulated easily in real time with the
mouse, zoomed or observed in stereo. Structure movement can also occur
stepwise for a more precise control. Animations can be created.
Steric conflicts, disulfide bonds, hydrogen and ionic interactions can be
located and displayed in the protein structure. These interactions are
also reported in the text window.
Atoms and residues can be tagged individually (or globally) and structural
information can then be extracted.
Portions of a structure can be read into memory or displayed.
Two structures can be read at the same time in memory and can be
overlapped automatically.  The second structure can be manipulated
independently of the first.
Bonds can be rotated and atomic parameters can be changed.
The sequential folding of a protein can be simulated.
It is possible to create a protein de novo from the menu or by entering
the sequence from the keyboard. Structures can then be manipulated locally
or forced into helices. Site directed mutations can be simulated.
The application can process structures in the batch mode to extract a
number of structural features: Ramachandran plots, SS-bond plots, H-bond
plots. Statistics on atomic parameters are displayed as histograms.
The content of image and text windows as well as histograms can be saved
to disk.


SOFTWARE ENVIRONMENT

'FoldIt (light)' can only work on Macintosh computers running under system
7.0 and higher.
It has been developed with Symantec Think Pascal and includes 55000 lines
of code.
The application can run in the background which is convenient for lengthy
statistical procedures. 'FoldIt (light)' does not support printing but can
save the content of its text window (report of different operations and
data analysis) and the content of the image window (result of graphic
operations) in TEXT or PICT formats. These files can then be manipulated
by other specialized applications and printed. 


HARDWARE ENVIRONMENT

'FoldIt (light)' runs only on MacOs compatible computers equipped with a
PPC processor.
The application itself requires 2 MB of memory; 3.3 KB of additional
memory are required for each read residue: this means that 660 KB of extra
RAM are necessary to read a typical 200-residue protein. Color monitors
are preferred to give a better depth perception but black & white monitors
may also be used.


DOCUMENTATION

On-line help as well as balloon help are supported, and a printable stand
alone document is provided. Several small size protein structures are
included as example.
