Yes, I'll help you. I have a copy of Partition Magic which has 
proved worth its weight in gold. For you gold-diggers, I'll send 
your names & addresses to PowerQuest Corp., so they can contact you 
about getting legal copies. (If your copy were legal, you would 
already have called PowerQuest with  your name and serial # and they
would have helped you.)

Really!

Hallo,

does anybody know how to detect secondary structures in RNA?
I 'd like to know if my specific sequence (mammalian) contains
termination signals for T7 polymerase.
I think hairpin structures result in termination of transcription
- am I right?

Thank you for help,

The PIRALN Protein Sequence Alignment Database is a database of protein
alignments produced by L.-S. Yeh, G.Y. Srinivasarao and C.R. Marzec of
NBRF/PIR. It is derived from sequences in the PIR-International Protein
Sequence Database. Alignment entries are one of three types: sequences
from one family which are less than 55% different from each other,
sequences representing various families within a superfamily or sequence
segments corresponding to some homology domain found in multiple
proteins.

Release 19.0, March 1998, of the PIRALN database contains a total of
3468 alignments, with 40,773 members. There are 2106 family, 1012
superfamily and 350 homology domain alignments. These alignments are
curated and contain only representative sequences; alignment entries are
not necessarily complete.

The information contained in a PIRALN entry is divided into twelve
sections. The sections are listed below in the order in which they occur
in the entry.

  Header - entry beginning and identifier
  Title - title of the alignment
  Alternate names - alternate names for the group
  Date - creation, sequence revision and text revision dates
  Members - PIR entry codes of protein sequences used in the alignment
  Members Titles - PIR titles of sequences used in the alignment
  Other members - other members of the group not represented on the alignment
  Comment - comment lines
  Keywords - keywords present in all the members of the alignemnt
  Other keywords - keywords not common to every member of the alignment
  Alignment - alignment of sequences
  Matrix - matrix of percent differences

The Alignment database has been integrated with the ATLAS multidatabase
information retrieval system, developed at PIR, which provides full
access to the data. 

The Alignment database can be accessed via the WWW at
www-nbrf.georgetown.edu/pir and the "Atlas of Protein and Genomic
Sequences" CD-ROM available from the PIR-International centers in the
US, Europe, and Japan. For anonymous FTP download go to the PIR FTP site
at address NBRF.Georgetown.edu directory [ANONYMOUS.PIR.ALIGNMENT].

Techical questions regarding PIRALN should be directed to Christopher
Marzec and other questions to Lai-Su Yeh or Geetha Srinivasarao at

We use GEOCHEM-PC to simulate the binding of heavy metals to organic and
inoranic ligands.  In fact, we devised several types of microbiological
media to simulate the free metal availability based on the compnents in the
medium.  You could do the reverse in a closed system and determine the
amount of metal binding to certain ligands based on what you input as
ligand concentration and heavy metal concentration and form.  I could
obtain a copy for you from Dr. Rufus Chaney at the USDA or Dr. David
Parker, who developed the original program.

Out of curiosity, what other programs are you using?   

I can also send you references showing how bioavailability of metal rather
than concentration is the factor to consider in when addressing toxicity.

Add to the list of possibilities making your DLL's (or "shared libraries" in
the Macintosh OS / Unix terminology) in FORTRAN.  See 

   http://www.netlib.org/

for a vast repository of mathematical software, created by several generations
of numerical analysts working at NASA, Los Alamos, Sandia, Lawrence Livermore,
and Oak Ridge national laboratories.  

Many algorithms deposited in Netlib are documented in peer-reviewed journal
articles (e.g., "Trans. Math. Software"), so you know everything is working
the way it should.  If you don't have a FORTRAN compiler, just use the
public-domain "f2c" translator to translate everythign into C.

I would recommend using Visual Basic for the front-end user interface (for
rapid development) and then encapsulating your mathematical calculations and
other application-specific algorithms in DLLs or OCX controls developed with
C or C++ (or even with Visual Basic, if you are willing to sacrifice
performance and portability) which can be invoked from the Visual Basic
shell.  By encapsulating the programmatic essence of your application in
well-designed C or C++ code, you will enjoy the benefits of extreme
cross-platform portability with minimal source code adjustment, the rapid
execution speed of optimized and compiled C or C++ code, and the rendering
of your source code in an object-oriented general purpose programming
language that enjoys universal acceptance and which has become a de-facto
standard for scientific software engineering.

Hello,

I'd like to simulate the bio-adsorption of heavy metal.

Almost all simulation programs, not only freewares but commercial ones,
can be shown the binding of small molecules (ligand), I think.

But, how about heavy metal rather than ligand?
Can I calculate the binding energy of Metal with biomolecule?

Notice the techniques or the program tools, Anything OK...

Thanks.

Hi there,
 
 to analyze your seqs for such structures try the GCG package (aka
Wisconsin prgs.); it is available in Europe on EMBL node servers or your
University might have a local license...

Have fun,
 Roland

Yeah right.  Tell them I got the code PM302UK-105693. I still own a legal
copy. Software subscribers are at peril if they loose their serials and
newsgroups help them faster and better than the software manufacturer and

Yes, I'll help you. I have a copy of Partition Magic which has
proved worth its weight in gold. For you gold-diggers, I'll send
your names & addresses to PowerQuest Corp., so they can contact you
about getting legal copies. (If your copy were legal, you would
already have called PowerQuest with  your name and serial # and they
would have helped you.)

Really!

May I suggest MacBoxShade, which is designed to do just this. Output is
in EPSF, PS, PICT, RTF and ASCII formats, lots of options, Mac-type user
interface, complete control of colours used. Input is GCG/ClustalW MSF
file format.

I think it is pretty cool, but then I would, as I am the author ;-)

ftp://ulrec3.unil.ch/pub/boxshade/MacBoxshade

I have also posted it to Don Gilbert's iubio archive in the states, but
I haven't checked where exactly it is filed. If you have problems
getting hold of it, drop me a line.

As an addendum, I checked the iubio archive, and it is not there at the
moment. HOWEVER, the previous version (v 1.08) was incorrectly labelled
by the guy who submitted it as v2.08. Check the date of anything you
download, it should be this year. The version is 2.01 (or 2.1, I'm not
professional enough to remember off-hand ;-) ).

Hmmm. There is a non-obvious set of choices - including

	Seaview  (biom3.univ-lyon1.fr - ftp - unix)
	alscript (-C program - makes ps. barton.ebi.ac.uk) 
	genedoc (windows NT)
	belvu (I like it... ftp://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/esr/ - unix)

As for pure Web based ones, I know of one java alignment viewer...
but sadly unreleased yet... ;(

There has been a problem with one of our compute/file servers (gin) and this will
have
affected access to the ftp site and some of the www services.  The problems
occurred on
Monday afternoon 4/May/98 and Tuesday morning 5/May/98.

We simply use Excel which has a linear regression function called
TREND.  Type in standards, readings and unknowns, then use TREND to
calculate the protein concentration in each unknown.  Spend a short time
playing with the help file and create a nice spreadsheet.  Then just use
it over and over.  It even draws the curve with the regression line and
generates a report if you wish.

(I did not reply by direct email.  Why not read the Newsgroup?)

And if it was a Bill Gates's program, will you say the same thing - go back
to your seller and he'll give you the number- ?
I think a PC is enough expensive - how many people in the world got one ?-
but sufficiently lucrative for the most firms.
The aim 's that the more people get his PC and all the programs he need (to
work).

INCA is a Java applet that runs BLAST.

INCA is useful for elucidating distant relationships.

Give INCA a starter sequence and it finds related sequences. INCA runs
BLAST on the starter sequence and then runs BLAST on the matching
sequences. INCA keeps track of all the results.

INCA is useful for finding ESTs.

You can take the result of the first pass of INCA and use it
to probe the EST database and suck out all the related ESTs.

A new macintosh software has been released to:

    - construct linear regressions
    - interpolate in the equation deduced
    - study microbiological cultures
    - calculate the kinetic constans for an enzyme reaction

I don't think the guys who spent years writing Photoshop sell PC's. So
grab a brain. The guy's trying to steal software. The result of that
is the rest of us wind up paying for it in higher software prices. If
you defend the process, it tells me you're probably doing it too.

So you're justifying stealing software?  If you think for a nanosecond that
he's not stealing, then get real, Don Quixote.  Anyone with a sound mind could
realize that he's "fishing" for anyone who'd give him a serial number.  I hope
he sends it in to Adobe and gets caught, b/c I'm sure some genius like you gave
him the number.  You see, if he sends it and the number comes up in their
database as already in use, then whoever sent it would lose THEIR license and
get busted hard for software theft, a crime that creates that "expensive" PC
software you are so incoherently babbling about.

I own a PC and Windows95.  I don't agree with everything that Bill Gates does,
but blaming the high price of software on him is extreme to the Nth degree,
esp. when considering that software pirates whom steal the programs are the
ones who eventually drive the price upwards due to the need to implement
anti-piracy measures and pay the programmers on top of trying to make a
profit.  Furthermore, there is so much freeware and shareware out there that
you might find something of use for free!!

The programmers who post in this newsgroup (Higgins, Gilbert, Felsenstein,
Pearson, Kuzmic, Nicholas, anyone at NCBI and anyone else I forgot) release
free software that is very useful.  All they as for is the recognition of using
their software and registering, something that I'm more than willing to do.  I
think that they might be a little perturbed at the idea of posting serial
numbers for software that is obviously stolen. Yeah, sure, molecular biology
software is expensive, something which I think is a legitimate gripe.  However,
let the guy, if he's legitimate, go back to the retailer who sold him the
software to get the serial number; or better yet, send a proof of purchase
directly to the manufacturer, just like anybody else.  Remember, this is
standard policy for exchanges for ANYTHING, not just software.  I had a problem
with mine that the people at Adobe cleared up rather quickly and efficiently.

I am a graduate student.  That means that I can't really afford a nice software
package.  I, however, did manage to pull enough money from my own pocket to buy
Office and a few Adobe products for the very simple reason that, in my
business, it's "publish or perish."   They are completely mine (registration
number and all), so I have a luxury that many students can't afford.  However,
I must remind you that I was never without access to computers (university
computer labs).  So, from even my "poor graduate student" POV, you are wrong.

Sheesh! Right on! (How can WE give him the serial # for HIS 
Photoshop?) 

In defense of paying for software, I'd like to add another angle. I 
have used literally hundreds of programs over the years, both 
commercial (_including_ shareware) and freeware (especially programs
developed by scientists). It is easy to appreciate the difference 
between a quick & dirty program that sort of does the job, and one 
which is well-written, well-behaved, doesn't crash & lose your data 
if you misspell a command, and does what you want it to do in a way 
that makes sense to you. That sort of quality ought to be worth 
paying for; that sort of care and attention and dedication to 
quality by the programmers ought to be rewarded. 

More importantly, since I have at times been an amateur programmer 
myself (an RNA fingerprinting program ca. 1990), I know how 
exhausting, frustrating, and time-consuming it is to develop a 
program that works properly, let alone has an elegant user 
interface. Further, most specialized software (not Photoshop) is 
coded by a small number of programmers - two or three good people 
have written commercial word processors, molecular biology programs,
etc. These programmers are trying to make good software that does 
what you want, the way you want, and when you want. For this they 
should be vilified & ripped off?

My bottom line: you want free Photoshop, fine! Go ahead and write 
one yourself. (P.S. do it in C++ or Java.) Or _pay_ someone who 
knows what they're doing to write it.

Where's the easter egg?

If you aren't discussing easter eggs, please drop the easter eggs
group from the newsgroups header.

Yes I know, the original spam shouldn't have included it, but
someone who follows up an article is responsible for where he
posts.

OK, enough already. Please see the responses to the Photoshop 
code-seeker in these newsgroups. Please realize that usually no-one 
but the software manufacturer or retailer can possibly know _your_ 
code. I sympathize with the idea that if you paid for a copy, then 
you ought to be able to use it. But the mfr. or retailer will help 
you with no questions & no money (you did register the program, 
right?) and probably better than the flakes who hang out in 
newsgroups (other than us...). Did they not answer their phone?

Dear everybody,

I can't believe my eyes! Where is the Easter eggs? Is here not the
Easter-eggs group? 

Serial number? If you got the legal copy, I don't believe the program
not work and, I also don't believe you will not talk to the people who
sold this product to you! Going to make the funny joke on us? Think
again!

By the way, will the webmaster change the group name to
"alt.comp.software.pirate" or "alt.comp.software.advertisement.board"
later? 

Just please don't fool me by the word of "easter.eggs", thank you!

I am the Software Editor for HMS Beagle (http://hmsbeagle.com), a webzine
for biomedical researchers.  I am looking for "working scientists" that are
interested in writing reviews of scientific software.  HMS Beagle pays for
these reviews, and if we are able to provide the software, you also get to
keep the package.

If you are interested, please send me email (bulseco@os.com) for more
details.  Basically, the questions that I will ask you are:

1. who you are?
2. what you do (e.g. graduate student?, post-doc, undergrad?, faculty?)?
3. what software package you are interested in reviewing (check out our
archives to see recent reviews)?
4. can you provide a writing sample?

NOTE: To read the reviews, FREE membership to BioMedNet is required.  It
takes a few minutes to fill out the info, but membership is complete FREE!

ALSO: by 'working' scientist, I just prefer scientists that are (or were)
actively doing research, teaching etc. 

Here are the relevant URLs:

HMS Beagle: http://hmsbeagle.com
BioMedNet: http://biomednet.com
Software archives can be seen at:
http://biomednet.com/hmsbeagle/tools/archives.htm#sreview

-or-

if you don't want to spend the time to register now, but want to see a list
of the reviews covered (this list is not up to date, but covers all reviews
through 1997), you can go to:

Dr. Gaskin, 

I would contact ABI/Perkin Elmer regarding that. There have been many
people in seeing the Mac sequencing analysis software ported over to
the Wintel world.  Check their website also. I forget the address.  It
might be: www.perkin-elmer.com/ab/index.htm

Good luck!!

Hmm I think he may mean Jalview.  No it isn't released yet (soon 
to be beta) but if some intrepid souls wish to try it out you can 
have a look at its home page

http://circinus.ebi.ac.uk:6543/jalview/

and trial applets are at

http://circinus.ebi.ac.uk:6543/jalview/try.html
and
http://circinus.ebi.ac.uk:6543/jalview/groups.html

I don't know if the output will be exactly what you want - 
postscript is generated and mailed back to you.  For real
flexibility (but ahem a not overfriendly interface :) alscript 
does the job.  (I should declare an interest here as I work
in Geoff Barton's group.)

Cheers

Michele.

There is a program called Geneskipper from the EMBL in Heidelberg which is
designed for the A.L.F. Sequencer to do everything in assembling contigs and
analysing the sequence in several respects (ORFs, DOT-blots etc.). This
program can easily import ABI rawdata files and handle them. It runs under
Win3.1 to WinNT but it is not for free.
Contact is schwager@embl-heidelberg.de

We are pleased to announce the availability of a new bacterial gene
prediction program ORPHEUS:

http://pedant.mips.biochem.mpg.de/frishman/orpheus_home.html

ORPHEUS is a software system for gene prediction in complete bacterial
genomes and large genomic fragments. The analysis starts with database
similarity search and identification of reliable gene fragments. The
latter are used to derive statistical characteristics of protein-coding
regions and ribosome-binding sites. At the final step, the complete set
of genes in the analyzed genome is predicted, with special attention
paid to correct gene start identification. All analysis steps are fully
automated.

There is a program called Chromas written by Conor McCarthy at Griffith
University Australia which will read an ABI file and allow editing of
sequence it will search, reverse complement and display edited sequence
or original - I find it very useful - it is freely available at
http://trishul.sci.gu.edu/~connor/chromas.html

Perkin Elmer offers "AbiView" as freeware for Windows. This program
allows you to view sequence data, but not to edit them. Quite a
primitive program and very slow also.
I have never heard of an Abi sequence editing software for Dos/Windows
systems. I would bo interested, too.

hi,
    is there anything like CHIME plug-in (2D/3D molecule display) 
that runs on DEC alphas ? it's kind if hard to set up a page rendered 
with it while sitting in front of an alpha box.... MDM (the authors

Hi Duncan,

I can highly recommend Chromas. I find it very useful. You can find it
at:

http://www.technelysium.com.au/chromas.html

Up to version 1.44 it is freeware, the improved version 1.5 is
shareware ($75).

happy sequencing,

Arnoud

That link is stale. Chromas' new address is

From what I see, it looks like a nice program. Now, does anyone know of a 
program for Windows95 which can do STR genotyping from ABI gel outputs. 
If there isn't one for Win95, then a Linux one would be fine. If there 
isn't one, then I'm going to have to buy myself a Mac to sit alongside my 
PC....which will give my partner something to laugh at, if nothing else.

I believe that Sequencher is now out in Win95 format (previously Mac
only). SeeCosts megabucks, of course. See the Genecodes website at
