Hmm, yes it exists, but I forgot the name.
They had a demo on the web. Try Altavista.

Yes.  Executor, by ARDI.  It's quite good, as long as your program
does not require System 7 (it's some time since I've used it, so their
System 7 support may be better now than it used to be).  See
www.ardi.com

It's quite inexpensive, too.

Tim.

The best (and maybe the only) available emulators are Executor (www.ardi.com)
and Fusion (www.microcode-solutions.com). They use completely different
approaches: Executor creates a pseudo-Mac shell for running Mac programs and
relies upon a built-from-scratch emulation (that is no Mac ROMs are needed), at
the expense of a quite low compatibility; on the other hand, Fusion emulates
68040 code and uses true Mac ROMs images for the system emulation (therefore you
must have a Mac to build ROM images and use Fusion).
Personally, I do prefer Fusion, as it gives you an almost complete compatibility
and peripherals support.

Good luck!

There is a third one, which I can't remember the name of, but it is the
worst of them so don't bother.

The bottom line is that these emulators emulate 680x0 processors and are
therefore quite useless at emulating a lot of current mac software which
is power PC only.  I tried out executor and must say that the only
"useful" thing that I could do with it was to play Jewelbox.

  Check out VMac (www.vmac.org). It's not that good, but it's free and it 
runs on many different platforms. You'll need a ROM image from a real 
Mac, though (if you don't have any moral objections to it, you can 
probably find an illegal ROM image on the WWW).

Hi,
   I'm interested in searching the protein database with 200 proteins on a
routine basis.

I have a system to do the searches (FASTA) in batch locally (via a perl
script), but I'd like to be notified when there's a new hit with good
score.
Somehow an old and new reuslt file has to be compared.

Does anyone have a program to do this sort of thing?

I've used swiss-shop, but I eventually want to incorporate this
notification into another program for displaying the results graphically.

Any ideas appreciated!

Dear Netters,

I have recently joined this discussion group, so please forgive me if  I am posting a too basic
question  repeated several times earlier.

I have done some genetic engineering during my Ph.D.. Now it has come to teaching the same to
undergraduates who can't lay their hands much ta the same in practicals. I find it extremely difficult
to make them imagine the steps at molecular level.

Could you please help me obtain some software that will allow the students perform RE digestion,
ligation, PCR, mutation, recombination etc. on PC. I already have DNASIS which can be used to teach
restriction mapping.

Thanks in advance.

Yours sincerely,

Dr. Abhay Shendye.

	Hello,

I would like to know if someone is aware of a software that would automaticaly retrieve the target sequences, identified by a BLAST search, from a server ( eg : retrieve@genbank.bio.net) and save them localy.

Thank you for reading my message.

Some news about the binary packages I maintain for the Debian GNU/Linux 
operating system. You can now install them with the package manager apt, 
which automatically retrieves packages over the network and install them. 
Just one command to install a package and all the libraries it depends 
on (for instance, 'apt-get install njplot').

Apt users should add this line to their sources.list:

deb ftp://ftp.pasteur.fr/pub/computing/debian-biology stable biology

(PC with i386 processors only, others should use the regular Debian
repositories.)

See details and instructions here:

If you are doing a netBlast with GCG, I believe that NetFetch can parse 
the blast output file and fetch the cited sequences from the NIH site.

Also, Nigel Brown's program, MVIEW will 'extract' alignments from a
BLAST search to create a multiple alignment (with some caveats); this
sometimes obviates the need to pull sequences depending on what you
have in mind for the database matches.

Hi:

I have a question of using Repbase with RepeatMasker.

We have received a licensed version of hrap/cross_match/swat package
and I installed it on our Digital alpha unix machine.

I run "make" file and got the executable of the "cross_match".

I have test run the "RepeatMasker" on the same machine and it worked
fine (I compared the output from our "RepeatMasker" and from
http://www.mgu.har.mrc.ac.uk/repeat/RepeatMasker and they yeilded the
same result). It seems that "RepeatMasker" use the files in "Libraries"
subdirectory to do its comparision.

Now we have also licensed the "Repbase" and got the following files:

README.html  humrep.ref   invrep.ref   plnapp.ref   pseudo.ref
simple.ref
README.txt   humsub.ref   mamapp.ref   plnrep.ref   rodapp.ref
vrtrep.ref
humapp.ref   invapp.ref   mamrep.ref   pseapp.ref   rodrep.ref

So my question is:

In order to use Repbase with RepeatMasker, is it just simply to move
the "ref" files into
the "Libraries" subdirectory of the RepeatMasker? Or I need to do
something else such as to modify RepeatMasker's perl code?

If you reply, please send a copy to  zlmei@hotmail.com

Thanks in advance.

Guang Mei

About "some bad words from some guys in the newsgroups":

I should say that it is the normal thing in our world.
When people are doing the same thing (selling), there is
some kind of competition between them.
Also you can not be liked by everyone.
Those people who write there about unrecieved orders,
lost payments are simply lying, because I do not know
them at all.
They are not my clients.
Instead of informing me about lost orders and money,
they write to the newsgroups shouting to the whole
world about "Norman - deceiver".
Who is the biggest deceiver?
If my clients have some problems, first of all they
inform me about - so they recieve Help.

Anyway everyone have his right of choice!

Norman

What a week!  I will not devulge the ugly details, but suffice it to
say, I have to get a standalone Linux workstation up and running with
some basic molbio packages.

Almost everything is going OK at present (big thanks to Alan Williams),
but I am very stumped with Primer3.

This machine is *not* hooked up to the Internet, so we need to use a
standalone primer prediction package.

The machine is running RH 6.0 (I'm not sure what version of gcc to be
honest) and kernel 2.2.9 .

First of all, I cannot get the source packages to pass the
primer_test.pl file, it bombs almost immediately. (the executable
*seems* to compile OK).  So, I tried a statically linked ELF binary, but
(and this is the embarrassing part), I cannot figure out *what* the
exact command line should be!  I have an example file in Boulder IO
format and the program kicks out "Format should be ./primer3
[-format_output] " and that it takes standard input.  I've tried
multiple permutations to no avail.

This is frustrating in the extreme (to say the least), and data is
piling up on me....(and my poor student)

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated,

Jil

Oh well, nothing quite like answering one's own post....but I had one last
go at it this evening, and got it.

Thank goodness!

It may have been painful, but I've learned a ton.

Thanks for lending an ear.

Hi,

I want to measure the size of a cell on a crickets'wing. Therefore I use
an EM and save the picture as a bitmap. Has anyone an idea how to
measure an area in a bitmap-picture? It would be appreciable when there
would be a tool which can automatically select the wanted area - like
the magic wand mask tool of Corel Photo-Paint.

Thanks
    Steffen

Jil,

You have tried re-directing STDIN, right? We use Primer3 here as a
stand-alone package, and I've included an example of what a command
looks like when we run it. (with the executable named primer.)

% primer <  selected.1998-03 > candidates.1998-03

So selected.1998-03 is the input file in Boulder IO format, and the
candidates.1998-03 file is the outputfile.

Hope this helps,
-Todd

Todd,

You hit the nail on the head.  I've been learning UNIX/Linux from the ground
up and for the life of me I couldn't figure out how to redirect STDIN!  Really
basic.  And strangely enough, none of the several books I checked explained
explicitly how to do it.

Oh well, live and learn.  The standalone Primer3 seems quite nice. My student
is *thrilled*. She designed her last set of human-based primers by hand. She
did a great job, but it was painful, so I think this will help her out.

Thanks again,

Jil

*****************************************************************

                     XAct 1.0 for Windows 95/98

            A Program for Contruction, Automated Setup,
          and Bookkeeping of Crystallisation Experiments

                   Macromolecular Crystallography
           Institute of Molecular and Structural Biology

                              Denmark

*****************************************************************

XAct is a stand-alone application for Microsoft Windows 95/98 that
can be used to construct, maintain, and record the results of many
crystallisation experiments. Through an extensive object-oriented
data structure, the program supports multiple users each with many
crystallisation experiments organised in a hierarchical fashion.

The program has been developed in the Laboratory for Macromolecular
Crystallography, Institute of Molecular and Structural Biology, Aar-
hus University, Denmark headed by Asc. Prof. Jens Nyborg.

XAct is being used on a daily basis in our laboratory by technicians,
students, grad. students, and post.doc.'s to set up crystalisation
trials in an organised way. At the moment, the program can be down-
loaded in a late beta-version.

The software is available free of change to all academic users after
the registration form has been completed. Registration and download
is done through the XAct homepage at

  http://zombie.imsb.au.dk/xact

This page also contains additional information about the software,
screen shots, manual, references, etc.

The program supports automatic dispensing of the designed solutions
using a Gilson model 222 autosampler attached to the PC. We are espe-
cially interested in response from people who have this equipment in
the lab and who might wish to use it for setting up crystallisation
trials.

Hi,

Mview aligns the sequences reported in the blastfile which is very often
only a fragment of the sequence (the highest scoring part) but mview is
able to produce output in html and link the sequences to SRS so you can
click on the sequence names and get the full database entry from SRS.
Have a look at http://mathbio.nimr.mrc.ac.uk/nbrown/mview/

You may also use Octopus by Patrick Durand, which displays Blast (and Fasta) 
output, shows sequence info etc,  lets you select some or all sequences and 
displays them aligned in an editor window. You can save them as an .MSF file.

The new ESPOIR 2.0 release has passed successfully the SDPD
Round Robin sample II test (tetracycline hydrochloride) by the
molecular replacement method. It can now be considered as a
serious competitor in this field as well as in the Monte Carlo
from "scratch" field.

It is still proposed under the GNU  license (source available,
business and modifications possible if the source remains open)
at :          http://www.cristal.org/sdpd/espoir/

In fact, available competitors are few (PowderSolve, Endeavour,
Promet...), though many others have produced results (OCTOPUS,
GAP, DRUID, ROTSEARCH....) and ESPOIR is the only open
code on the market (FORTRAN).

Best, and have fun with it,

Given ESPOIR uses extracted intensities - has it been
tested/how good is it on single crystal HKL data 
(0% overlap) in suggesting a starting model?
Am mainly thinking in terms of datasets with poor intensity, 
ambigious spacegroup, etc - but it should work by default
on good quality data(?).

Surely if ESPOIR/Monte Carlo methods can do a good job with 
intensities extracted from powder data, it should be able to do
at least as well on single crystal data(?)

In general, who can do the hard work, can do the simple.
Single crystal data-like were tested.

Yes, ESPOIR is able to determine structures from single crystal
data. But the upper complexity limit is ridiculously low if
compared with direct methods. In the "from scratch" option
(i.e. starting from completely random models), the maximum
number of independent atoms is 15-30 : really small ! The
maximum complexity for using ESPOIR in the MR (Molecular
Replacement) mode (locating a known fragment) is not well
known, but degrees of freedom (DoF) may be of the order 50-100
(however, the ESPOIR 2.00 version can locate only one
fragment, corresponding to 6 DoF). Further developments will
concern the consideration of torsion angles and rotating/translating
several fragments together.

Reasons for not being able to determine a structure from
single crystal data may be quite numerous. If the crystal is
twinned by merohedry, ESPOIR will be very helpful, for instance,
since an option for working from a powder pattern regenerated from
the |Fs| is included. This option will restitute a non-twinned set of
powder data, though loosing some information in strict orverlapping
peaks.

 ASN.1 looks ideal for complex sequence records.  I'd like to extend existing

Dear colleague,

The latest update to MVSP, our multivariate stats package, is now 
available. The major new features in version 3.1 include:

1) The ability to assign individual cases to groups. The group names 
are then printed on output and dendrograms, and the groups are 
depicted on scatterplots as different symbols. 

2) Three new coefficients - Bray Curtis, Modified Morisita and 
Baroni-Urbani Buser.

3) Excel 97 files can now be imported.

4) Several minor bugs have been fixed.

This is a FREE upgrade for all owners of MVSP 3.0. To get this 
upgrade simply download the evaluation version from our web site 
(at the address below) and install it over your existing copy of 
MVSP. It will automatically pick up your registration information and 
be converted into the fully working version.

For more information about MVSP and to download the trial version 
please visit our web site: http://www.kovcomp.co.uk/mvsp/

Note: If you have previously only used the trial version but wish to 
try out this new version you may contact us for an extension to the 
trial period.

Ray,

I have written a program which runs GENSCAN, FGENES, MZEF, GRAIL2, 
RepeatMasker, Sputnik and BLAST and prints the output as ASN.1.
Which can then be viewed graphically using NCBI's Sequin Program.

You are welcome to have a look at my code which is freely available
at http://genome.nhgri.nih.gov/genemachine/

I also found readseq to be very helpful in the process of learning ASN.1.
After converting a FASTA formatted sequence to ASN.1 using readseq, 
I was able to get an idea of the basic format.

You may also want to have a look at SEALS (or contact the author)
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Walker/SEALS/
I know that an ASN.1 perl module was in the works but am not sure 
on the status of this.

Oh and the on-line docs for "The DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank Feature Table Definition"
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/collab/FT/index.html

You may also consider XML for sequence records.  There has been considerable
work done in this area and there are many freely available parsers already
available in several languages.  See these URLs for more info...

Dear people:

I am pulling my hairs out on this one.  My boss has a pc Word Perfect
v9.0 and I have a mac MS Office98.  We are now working on a manuscript
with a lot of symbols and Greek letters in it.  We can't seem to be able
to preserve the symbols and Greek letters during the conversion.  First,
is it even possible to convert between these two extremes?  Second, if
yes, where can I find it?  We are just two innocent by-standers caught
between these companies.  Help us please!!!

ANNOUNCEMENT June 1999
Metabolic Simulation and Control Analysis Software

For those registered to use WinSCAMP there is an update to version 1.0 at:

http://www.fssc.demon.co.uk/Biotech/biotech.htm

or via my main page at:

http://www.fssc.demon.co.uk

The update is in the form of a patch zip file. To use this patch, unzip the
file to get at the executable. Run the executable patch file. Once running
you will need to give the path and name to the old version of WinSCAMP. Tip:
if you copy the patch file to the same location as the old WinSCAMP you do
not need to supply WinSCAMP's location. Finally you need to give the name of
the new version, currently, new.exe. If you wish you can leave this name as
it is and once the 'new.exe' is generated by the patch file, rename it to
winscamp.exe.

This patch upgrades WinSCAMP 1.0 to 1.1

IMPORTANT

There are two other downloads available at the above site which registered
users should also download. There is an update to the core SCAMP files,
version 2.71 which are required for the new version of WinSCAMP. There is
also an extra.zip file which contains amongst other files, a new and updated
help file. This help file is in the new HtmlHelp format. Copy the files in
extra.zip to the WinSCAMP directory and copy the files in SCAMP.zip to your
SCAMP directory.

What's new in version 1.1?

There have been a number of significant changes:

1. Configurable syntax highlighting to the SCAMP script files.
2. Many more graphing options including export, preview and full graph style
editing.
3. WinSCAMP can now find the enzyme database!
4. Changed size of editing area, moved options buttons to the preferences
dialog box.
5. Many more options in the preferences dialog box.
6. Added a previous files reopen history menu.
7. New Help file, now in HtmlHelp format, you will need  Internet Explorer 4
or Win98 installed on your system for this to work. There is a microsoft
update at my web for thsoe who don't have the most recent help engine.
8. General bug fixes and tidying up.

The next upgrade will concentrate on the core SCAMP files and the WinSCAMP
scripting wizard.

What is WinSCAMP?

WinSCAMP is the windows 95/98 front-end to the metabolic simulation and
control analysis package called SCAMP. SCAMP is based on a simple scripting
language which is used to describe metabolic and chemical reaction schemes.
WinSCAMP allows one to easily write and develop SCAMP script files, run the
models and display the results as tables, 2D and 3D graphs. Although SCAMP
is freeware, WinSCAMP is not. This is because it's development incurred real
monetary
expenditure. WinSCAMP can be registered for 30 US dollars.

If there are any problems, questions etc. please get in touch!

Enjoy

Hello:

I have a large number of oligonucleotide sequences available as
as fasta format database.  These oligos range in length from 15
nucleotides to about 100 nucleotides.  

I would like to search a larger sequence (3 - 5 kb) against this 
database -- so that I can identify all the oligos that lie in the 
large sequence, and use them as PCR primers or whatever.

What publically available programs are suitable for this search? 
I have tried using Bill Pearson's fasta or ssearch programs, but 
they appear unsuitable (or I don't know what command line parameters 
to pass).  Fasta/ssearch find both perfect and imperfect matches,
while I would like to find perfect matches over the entire length
of the oligonucleotide.

Thanks,
Ashok

	Wow.  What software do you use?  

	You could blow up the image, print it out, cut out the cricket wing
cell, and weigh the piece of paper.  Now, stop laughing, I'm serious. 
Do the same for something you took an EM of and that you know the area
of to determine the scale.  Cut out and weight 5 copies of the same
image to determine the variation in your method.  Maybe try different
types of paper to find one that is constant.  Regular lazer jet paper
works fine and is cheap.  If this cricket wing business is something
you're going to do once and quit, this quick and dirty method might get
you done quicker than something more computerized.  

	Or, Visual basic (and almost all other programming languages) will let
you determine the color of a pixel of a bitmap.  You could use Corel
Photo-Paint or Paint Shop Pro to simplify the image - 2 color only, and
use the magic wand to copy the cell to a blank bitmap.  Then a very
simple program could count the colored pixels.  You could even have it
color each pixel as it is counted so you can see that it is working
correctly.  

	Or, when you increase the magnification of an image in Paint Shop Pro
to the maximum, you can clearly see the individual pixels.  You could
count them yourself.  Use a drawing tool with a color not used in your
image to mark out each one as you count.  

	Or, you could hire someone like, well, like me to do it for you.  


	Have fun!

There will are applications in EMBOSS that we can easily modify to do
this.  Sounds like a good idea - we will add it soon.

EMBOSS is the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite
of sequence analysis programs. It is GPL (and LGPL) licensed and
is currently available as a pre-beta release.

The EMBOSS home page is http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/EMBOSS/

Hi,

The last version of FASTA Scan (3.2.4 for win95/98/NT4) is freely
downloadable at:

http://pcgen018.molinette.unito.it/programs.html

Some bugs were fixed and some options added:

- FASTA Scan works with FASTA version 3.2t05 (May 12, 1999) of Pearson
package
- You can now select peptidic sequences from FASTA output with the
cut-off option
- You can now select all sequences that have an homology percent
greater than an  arbitrary value


Comments, critics and suggestions are welcome at
friard@molinette.unito.it

Thank you for the attention

Olivier Friard




P.S. This page contains other small software (for Win95/98/NT4) for

Hi. I suggest using cap2 / cap3 software for EST assembly. The
algorithm seems to be particularly fit for these tasks.
The programs are available from X.Huang: huang@mtu.edu.

An on-line version is available for testing at

http://hercules.tigem.it/ASSEMBLY/assemble.html
http://hercules.tigem.it/cgi-bin/uniestass.pl
http://hercules.tigem.it/BLASTEXTRACT/estextract.html

You will need a (quite powerful) UNIX workstation anyway.

Best wishes,

Alessandro Guffanti, TIGEM.

When I've been doing a similar procedure the limitation appeared
to be in Microsoft's import filter (they've never been particularly
good).  I gave up and used a series of macros to convert all
problematic characters before transfer eg. I changed all mu characters
to **mu**.  After importing the document I reversed the substitutions
using more macros.  Where possible I've preferred using a commonly
readable and stable format such as RFT.

Thanks for that straight forward solution :-).
At the moment I am simplifying the image in black and white. Then I measure with
the pick-tool of Corel Photo-Paint the whole picture. The grey-value gives me a
value of 0-255 which I then normalize to 100 %. With the help of the EM-scale I
can determine the size of the wing.
A friend of mine suggested to convert the picture into an ASCII-file with 'xv'
(black-and-white) and then counting the black pixel by the command grep '255'
datei | wc.
