Dear colleagues

As someone interested in signal transduction I=B4m looking for a software=

tool / database that can store and graphically display signalling
pathways like =B4MyNewKinase inhibits YourWellKnownFactor by
phosphorylation=B4. I would also like to store new data from the
literature with this tool.

Has anyone heard about such software ?
Any suggestions are wellcome.

DATAMINING IN BIOINFORMATICS - TOWARDS IN SILICO BIOLOGY
10 to 12 November 1999
EBI - Wellcome Trust Genome Campus - Hinxton - Cambridge


INTRODUCTION
During the last few years bioinformatics has been overwhelmed with
increasing floods of data, both in terms of volume and in terms of new
databases and new types of data. We are now entering the post-genomic age,
where, in addition to complete genome sequences, we are learning about gene
expression patterns and protein interactions on genomic scales.  This poses
new challenges. Old ways of dealing with data item by item are no longer
sustainable and it is necessary to create new opportunities for discovering
biological knowledge "in silico" by data mining.


SCOPE
Data mining is defined as "exploration and analysis by automatic and
semi-automatic means, of large quantities of data in order to discover
meaningful patterns and rules".  Our conference on 'Data mining for
Bioinformatics' will bring together researchers interested in both fields,
with the aim of generating new ideas and insights into how to tackle the
challenge of floods of data in molecular biology. We will cover data mining
applications in: molecular sequence and structure data, gene expression and
other high thru-put data, and in  existing knowledge buried in large
biological texts.

A list of speakers include:
o Rolf Apweiler (EMBL-EBI)
o Phil Bourne (UC San Diego Supercomputer Center)
o Inge Jonassen (University of Bergen)
o Heikki Mannila (Helsinki University, Microsoft)
o Christos Ouzounis (EMBL-EBI)
o Paul Spellman (Stanford University)
o Isidore Rigoutsos (IBM Research)
o Ron Taylor (National Cancer Institute, NIH)
o Martin Vingron (DKFZ, Germany)
o David Westhead (University of Leeds)

VENUE
The conference will be held at Hinxton Hall Conference Centre on the
Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, near Cambridge, UK, and will consist of
invited talks and poster sessions. The conference will commence late
afternoon on November 10 with a key-note address followed by a conference
dinner.  The conference will end at noon November 12.

REGISTRATION
The number of participants will be restricted to 200. The early registration
and abstract (1 page) submission deadline is September 19.  The early
registration fee, excluding the conference dinner, is GBP 100; late
registration has been set at GBP 175.
Registration and submission of abstracts can be done online.

MORE INFORMATION
Our website has the latest information on the conference; we cordially
invite you to visit it at http://industry.ebi.ac.uk/datamining99/

With kind regards,

Jean-Jack Riethoven on behalf of the organising committee

Try ACEDB, there is a special database which has been developed by Takako
Takai-Igarashi and Tsuguchika Kaminuma just for that purpose (well, it
seems...:-)

Hi All,

tacg is a command-line restriction mapping and pattern-matching tool that
runs on unixy systems (and has been ported in command-line mode to DOS,
Windows95/98/NT and even the Mac).
Version 3 will be forthcoming Real Soon Now.

However, this note is about public WWWtacg server availability.
The server that hosted the publicly available version of tacg at UC Irvine
crashed some time ago and was not restored.  A number of people have asked
about replacement servers so here are some that I know about:

http://24.1.175.29/tacg   
(this is the primary site - all new versions will be available here 1st)

http://darwin.bio.uci.edu/tacg

Catherine Letondal has also set up her own tacg interface at:
http://bioweb.pasteur.fr/seqanal/interfaces/tacg.html
which is a bit different than mine, but actually adds some more
functionality to it.


I'm compiling a list of alternative public servers to place on my web page
for when I release the beta of version 3 - I'm just finishing off the docs
and tacking on the last few functions which include:

- integration with Jim Knight's seqio (and therefore multiple sequence
    analysis as well as automatic reformatting), 
- matrix matching (using TRANSFAC-formatted matrices), 
- reverse translation (as part of 'Silent Sites', also new), 
- more protein info (est. pI, absolute and % composition of peptides)
- some elementary stats, 
- regular expression matching, 
- sliding window analysis  
- 'surrounding sequence' extraction, with auto rev. compl or not
- per-pattern min/Max filtering and logic (in a sliding window or not) 
- allows alternative pattern files for patterns, matrices, regular
    expressions, etc.
- lots of bug fixes, code cleanup, memory leak plugs, better formatting
- introduction of more bugs, but hopefully fewer than I fixed :)
- an example function to show how to explicitly add your own functions to
it
- autoconf configuration and 
- RPM packaging (mostly for Linux)

on top of the previous:

- Proximity matching, 
- searching with errors 
- 1|3|6 frame translations in 1|3 letter codes, using any Codon
    Translation table, ouput in FASTA format
- some primitive ORF finding (but not real gene finding yet), 
- degenerate (IUPAC) sequence handling in input sequence and patterns, 
- gel simulations (w/ hi/lo cutoffs), 
- ladder maps, 
- Linear maps, 
- tabular Sites, 
- multiply sorted tabular Fragments, 

written in ANSI C, w/ dynamic mem for most ops, developed on Lintel,
tested so far on SGI and Solaris; final targets are those and PPC Linux,
Alpha Linux, Compaq Tru64 (aka DEC Unix aka OSF), the BSDs, and maybe NT
and MacOS X.

The new WWW interface is also under development.  It will hopefully include
graphic plasmid map functionality.

I am trying to count and measure the area of duckweed leaves. I already
have a free shareware program called ImageTool. I can use it to count
leaves but have not as yet been able to measure areas successfully.
Can anyone in internet land answer one of these questions:

1. How do you measure image areas in ImageTool?

2. What other free software programs exist that could measure
duckweed area?

Hello I would appreciate some pointers with
regards to phylogenetic soft ware
packages/programs that are user-friendly, work in
windows 95 etc., and can perform or infer
phylogenetic relationships based on amino acid
sequence alignments.

Thanks for the help.     George.

SANBI is making available a dataset of masked ESTs suitable for
benchmarking. We are keen to evaluate the *hardware* performance of
clustering applications, and also the *clustering* performance and accuracy.
The dataset represents a randomly chosen set of Human eye-expressed ESTs
that have been masked for repeats and vector sequences. It has not as yet
been assigned to 'true' gene classes, as these have not all been assigned
against available genome data.

The dataset can be found at ftp.sanbi.ac.za/STACK/benchmarks/

The dataset is made available with the proviso that results of benchmarking
should be
made broadly available.  Our own results and a suggested format are found in

ftp.sanbi.ac.za/STACK/benchmarks/README

Algorithmic benchmarks can be found at
ftp.sanbi.ac.za/STACK/benchmarks/ALGO_BENCH

Unfortunately, due to spamming, uploads to the FTP site are not possible.
Please email results including clusters if possible to info@sanbi.ac.za and
they will be posted.

Low Tech solution.

Photocopy a leaf (assuming it is big enough) and cut it out. Weigh.
Compare to weight of known area of identical photocopy paper.

You will find a lot of useful links for phylogentic programs for windows.

You can also try this site:

to find some online tools for making trees.

But first, you should look at this site to make online some aligments with your sequences:

I have recently purchased a Becton Dickenson FACSMate without the
HP9800 controller. I have an industrial application and would like to
be able to control the cytology unit directly from a PC without the
HP9800. I am an experienced C/C++ programmer. it should be an easy
task if I could find the correct information. I am looking for anyone
who might have documentation of the  communication protocall and
command set used by the unit.

thanks,

Hi Penny,

I think we have the software you're looking for. I  formed Aisle3
Software
after leaving my postdoc at HHMI, UCSD with the intention of creating an
application that would facilitate easy entry of new litter, tail, and
phenotype data and then provide sophisticated analysis of this data
across
the colony as a whole. Colony Manager is a Mac (soon to be Windows)
database that allows you to track an unlimited number of genotypes and
phenotypes in your colony using very straightforward menu based entry.
Once
you've entered the data you can not only keep and print records but
analyze
your colony data as a whole, e.g. by graphically displaying pedigrees
tracking phenotype vs. genotype inheritance, or by performing searches
identifying which mice in the colony bear any desired combination of
genotypes.

If you're interested, please let me know and I'll tell you more about
Colony Manager.

Best Regards,

Rob

I know of NIH image that could do that but I don't know if it is
straightforward. What you could do is what I did a few years ago

a) outline the leaf edge

b) layer an electronic sheet covered with dots onto your leaves

c) count first the dots fully inside a leaf and then all the dots even
slightly touching the leaf, average the total.

d) use the formula that translate a number of dots to an area (I do not 
have my course notes here but I am sure that formula can be easily
found, look in geology book I know this is used to measure the size of
cristals)


I think this process can be automated in NIHimage.

Hope this help.

ImageTool is a Windows program, so I presume that is your platform of
preference. I would recommend getting the Windows port of NIHImage,
which is available from Scion Corp
http://www.scioncorp.com

You will need to have DirectX installed in Windows95/NT.

In Image, outline the leaf, click in it with the wand tool and the area
will come up in one of the windows. Image has an extensive macro
facility, so a lot of this could be automated if you want to/can be
bothered.

Are you my heart's desire? I'm looking for someone who can take my breath away, leave me speechless and sweep me off my feet! I'm a very romantic, affectionate and passionate woman, extremely physical. I'm looking for the same in a partner.

I'm a very loving and giving person. I'm willing to give all I am to the right person and I'd like the same in return. I can't always promise sunshine and roses, but I can promise that if you're the right person, there will never be a dull moment, and you'll never question my love.

Is that person you?

Please Help
If you are men,  please send a email to the powerful of this world,
demanding the stop of the genocide that is taken place in East Timor.
Don't be indifferent and let murder a all nation.

Please send the petition above.

                                         PETITION

Widespread death and destruction are happening  in East Timor.
Unless world leaders exert  maximum pressure on the Indonesian
Government the  results of last Monday's referendum
will be followed by a growing massacre and destruction of thousands of
citizens who braved everything to vote,  expressing
overwhelmingly their wish to become independent.
Regrettably, the Indonesian Government is not fullfiling the New York
agreements and has allowed the violence to spread.

An   international force is essential to prevent the  total  slaughter
of the people by the    anti-independence militias.

                                         Therefore,

  I call upon you to  URGENTLY exert all of the available means at your
disposal to make the killings stop and prevent the
                         deportation and massacre of the people of East
Timor.



     If you agree send emails to:

  A preliminary release of Drawseq, a biosequence drawing tool,
  is available for comments and testing.
  
  This program draws pretty views of single or aligned sequences to
  various graphic formats.  Various styles can be set. Features are drawn
  when available.  You can use it as an application (still in a
  preliminary form), web form (still more primitive, few style choices), 
  or from a command-line for the hardy computist.

  Graphic output formats include PDF, PICT, GIF and Postscript.
  
  Drawseq is an updated module from the SeqPup sequence analysis package;
  it now can be used as a separate application or component in other
  packages.
  
  Home of this package is 
    http://iubio.bio.indiana.edu/soft/molbio/java/apps/drawseq/
  A Web form for this is

Problem:  I want to align a domain present in a superfamily of proteins
against a specific example of that domain. Er..that is to generate a large
number of pairwise alignments of the different examples of this domain
against my target sequence  (at leat I think that is what I want to do?),
and then order them in respect to similarity/identity. Is there a program
that will do this in a single pass?

Thanks for any advice

Is there a dedicated Ig superfamily database/resource anywhere?

Thanks

 Is you're interested in structures look at:

http://scop.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/scop/data/scop.1.002.001.html
( the SCOP database)

or

http://www.biochem.ucl.ac.uk/bsm/cath/CATH.0002.0060.0040.html
( the CATH database )

 The Pfam database has a huge set of aligned Ig sequences with links to the
SwissProt entry for each sequence:

Brent,

I would get a hold of the free bash shell for NT/Windows from Cygnus
Solutions (http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/). The "full" installation
includes gcc. Now you can compile phrap. In the shell you view the NT dir
structure.

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of a PC compatible assembly program that can use ABI
electropherogram files to reassemble the sequences.

Thanks in advance!!

Brent,

I apologize for replying to my own post and for being somewhat lacking in
detail ! I just did the experiment of compiling phrap on NT with these
Cygwin utilities. It seems to create the phrap executable (first change "cc"
to "gcc" in the makefile, then do "make"), which runs and gives the proper
error message. I am guessing it will work well, and I am also guessing that
phred will compile as easily. Here's a link for obtaining phred and phrap :

Dear Bionetters,

	Does anybody know how one may obtain the multiple sequence
alignment program PRRP by Osamu Gotoh (J.Mol.Biol., vol. 264, 823-838(1996))
or Dr. Gotoh's contact email address? Over the past month I've sent email
to gotoh@saitama-cc.go.jp, but they've always been returned undeliverable.
Thanks very much.

Cheers,

Vidana.

Dear DNATools users,

I recently (from revision 610 onwards) removed clustalw.exe from the installation files and instead
included
the two clustal programs (clustalw.exe, clustalx.exe and clustal.hlp) in a separate zip file:
clustal.zip.

Unfortunately I forgot to remove the entry for clustalw in the setup.lst telling the setup program
which files
to install. This has the consequence that during installation setup.exe tries to install
clustalw.ex_ - which
is not there any more.

The simplest solution is to edit the setup.lst in your temporary installation directory (i.e. the
directory
where you unzipped the downloaded installation file dt_51617.zip). Simply open setup.lst in a text
editor and delete the line:

File32=1,,CLUSTALW.ex_,clustalw.exe,$(AppPath),,,1/16/1998 13:19:58,344378,,"","",""

save setup.lst and run setup.exe again. The problem is now corrected. Sorry!

Soeren

we are able to announce that EMBOSS is ready for beta testing by
users. To date there are around 80 applications in the package.

We would like your comments on the current package and on any
improvements you would like to suggest. We will use your comments to
set priorities for further development.

EMBOSS is still in a beta state so you can expect bugs, but we will
fix them as quickly as possible. A new distribution is built each
night from our CVS master copy, and is available from

      ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/EMBOSS/

There is a script in the distribution that should be able to build
everything automatically for the core distribution. Just follow these
simple steps:

pick up file EMBOSS-0.0.4.tar.gz

gunzip EMBOSS-0.0.4.tar.gz
tar xvf EMBOSS-0.0.4.tar
cd EMBOSS-0.0.4/
csh ./make-all-static 

If you have any problems with the build please contact the new EMBOSS
support list emboss-bug@sanger.ac.uk

We will continue to add library functions, applications and
documentation. There is a weekly project meeting in Hinxton to discuss
progress, with the minutes available on the EMBOSS Web pages.

Useful URLs are:

Weekly meetings http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/EMBOSS/Meetings/
Applications    http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/EMBOSS/Apps/
Documentation   http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/EMBOSS/Doc/
ACD files       http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Software/EMBOSS/Acd/

The source code documentation is also indexed on the Sanger Centre
SRS server as databases "EFUNC" for functions and "EDATA" for data
types.

Hello!

SGI has parallelized the latest version of CLUSTALW, Version 1.8, and it
is now available at the following site (for free, of course!):

 http://www.sgi.com/chembio/resources/clustalw/parallel_clustalw.html

Additional information about CLUSTALW on SGI/IRIX is available here:

 http://www.sgi.com/chembio/resources/clustalw/

Please note that our Parallel CLUSTALW 1.8 contains a fix for a memory
access bug in the original code, so your results may be slightly
different with our Parallel CLUSTALW 1.8 versus the original CLUSTALW
1.8 distribution.  More information about this fix is available in the
README file (attached below).

Thank you again, and please do let me know if you have any questions or
comments!

With regards,

Haruna Cofer  :)

=====

30 August 1999

This distribution contains a parallelized version of CLUSTAL W 1.8
for SGI systems running IRIX 6.5.  Specifically, the Pairwise Alignments
and Guide Tree computations are parallelized.

It should be noted that this release uses a modification of the original
pairalign.c file, which was modified to fix a memory access bug in the
original code.  Specifically, the original CLUSTAL W code read beyond
the bounds of an allocated array, resulting in either a numerical error
or a core dump of the program.  The change made in pairalign.c is as
follows:

 Replace line 214 of pairalign.c:

   maxscore = diff(sb1, sb2, se1-sb1+1, se2-sb2+1, (sint)0, (sint)0);

 with the following line:

   maxscore = diff(sb1-1, sb2-1, se1-sb1+1, se2-sb2+1, (sint)0,
(sint)0);


To use this parallelized version of CLUSTAL W, simply set the
MP_SET_NUMTHREADS environment variable to the number of processors
you want to use.  For example, to use 4 processors:

 setenv MP_SET_NUMTHREADS 4

If this environment variable is not set, then the default is to use
the maximum number of processors on your machine.  Then use the
"clustalw_mp" executable to run the parallelized version of CLUSTAL W
in the same way you would use the original "clustalw" program.

Please send questions or problems to Haruna Cofer (haruna@sgi.com).

This is a pseudo commercial program/operation. Other real commercial
applications do not clog the airways with this kind of stuff !

Hello everyone:

I plan to pursue the Stanford bioinformatics certificate online, but need to
fulfill the molecular biology prerequisite. Would anyone care to suggest
either a self-study course or an online course?

Thanks in advance,
Jim

Dear John,

I'm sorry if I have offended you and perhaps wasted a few seconds of your precious time. I just have
a simple question to you: why do you keep reading my notices about DNATools if you are fed up with
reading them?? The message you refer to is addressed to DNATools users and the subject of the
message is clearly stated in the subject line.

It would have been a lot more relevant for the readers of the news group if you had been a bit more
specific in your criticism of the program. Whether or not the software is pseudo or real commercial
is a rather unscientific argument - of little help for other people in evaluating it.

I might add that many commercial software packages would greatly improve their reputation if they
reported bugs publicly - and supplied the corrected version the next day for free downloading!!

Regards

Soeren

Now that the new generation of G4 Powermacs is about to arrive, can we
expect a substantial increase in speed and performance compared to G3
based systems when running phylogenetic applications such as PAUP 4,
Puzzle, Phylip and fastDNAml? This is particularly relevant for those of
us doing timeconsuming bootstrap analyses of relatively large data sets
on Mac platforms.

Obviously, existing softeware needs to be rewritten to make use of the
new Multiprocessing and AltiVec technologies that are built into the G4.
However, the extent to which applications will benefit from the enhanced
FPU speed of the G4 will depend on whether they use floating point
instructions or integers. How do PAUP et al. work?

My obvious dilemma is this: would it be more sensible at this point in
time to invest in a high speed G3 Mac (tried and tested technology
available at reasonable prices), or to pay a premium price for a top of
the range superfast G4 whose improved performance may well be disappointing?

Hans

hello,

A company contacted me as they are unable to post to this group, and don't
understand why.  Could the moderator contact David Adcock at:

haybrook@cix.co.uk

They want to advertise a vacancy in bioinformatics programming - which
seems a reasonable use of this group to me, but they would appreciate
contact with the moderator.

Thanks

1)  I'm not sure there is a moderator on the group
2)  The correct group for job offers is not this one, but
    bionet.jobs.offered
3)  Posting problems could be a configuration error in the local news
    server.

Use bibtex in conjunction with makebst and you'll be happy. Of course,
only when working with LaTeX. On the other hand, LaTeX is the only viable
alternative to everything else :)

Good questions Hans; As far as I'm aware, the prices I've been quoted 
on G4's are no more than those previously given me for G3's.
Can anyone with a G4 supply some details to about what 
its multitasking abilities are like? This would also be interesting in
respect to using programs such as Clustal on a Mac too. 

(Indidentally, Has anyone performed a cost-effectiveness comparison in 
respect to performing computationally intensive processes on a Mac versus 
a PC (running either Windows or Linux/FreeBSD/Solaris)? Platform wars
aside, I'm not at all convinced that the Mac comes even close to PC's in 
terms of speed for a variety of often performed mb programs without 
blowing a hole in your wallet.)

Freeware control and data collection software for the BioStat fermentors
B, C, D and Micro-DCU has been released, version 1.1.

The host control software runs on NT/95/98 PC's and is a user-friendly
control and data acquisition program. All parameters (setpoints) can be
adjusted from the computer and with the software you can collect all
process data which are displayed in a graphical window. Fermentation
time and dates are logged as are user and remote connections.

To reduce ‘on-site' time, a TCP/IP client program enables you to control
and review collected data from any online computer in the world. The
remote control program is essentially the same as the host but gets data
via the TCP/IP connection from the host control program. Process
parameters can be send to the fermentor. For safety, on the host the
remote IP number can be specified or set to allow any connection via the
client program.

For program downloads, more information, and screen shots goto:

 I do not know any free soft about this, but I really like (and use)
EndNote (for mac and PC) and others like Reference Manager.

Actually the Macintosh compiler that everyone uses already has AltiVec
support in it so significant improvements can be expected with just
a recompile. For optimum speed, some rewriting (of a few core bits)
would be required. To answer your last question, PAUP and such programs
use floating point when doing analyses like maximum likelihood but not
with most parsimony analyses. The floating point processor (that is
seperate from the AltiVec) is much faster on the G4 than the G3. With
the exception of PAUP all the other programs you mentioned are free and
have source code so you can expect G4 versions as soon as someone with
an interest in them buys a new machine. I expect PAUP will have G4
support in a reasonable time frame. 

But remember these applications will run faster on a G4 of the same 
clock speed even without recompiling (faster processor, faster floating
point unit). Expect a 25% improvement (i.e. with a 500MHz G4 that would
be about 38% faster than a 450MHz G3).

Hope this helps,
Andrew

Greetings,

The following is a text-only description of a new program for music
composition. Please don't hesitate to download the demo version on the
Web at  http://www.quaderno.com


QUADERNO > THE  MUSICAL EXPRESSION

QUADERNO is a program for MIDI sequencing and an aid to musical
composition and research.
It runs on PC  (or on Power Mac using Virtual PC)


QUADERNO was created by two musicians who envisioned a program that
would serve their needs as composers. This software is the result of 5
years of  intense work and musical research.  It was first developed on
the Atari and since one year for the PC . It's a program based
entirely on MIDI; you can perform many types of data transformations
very quickly allowing immediate feedback based upon your musical idea.
The interface is attractively colored; it allows you to link music and
color in a very intuitive way.

A virtual Remote-Control panel allows you to:
1- determine your Recording choices
2- use special Functions  to transform your music
3- access the different "Spaces" (various views of your musical data)

1 - RECORDING  can be done in different ways:
- Normal MIDI recording with a keyboard or any MIDI instrument
- Simple Recording with the mouse (1 Pattern)
- Multitrack MIDI recording with the mouse (up to 56 Patterns all
together)
- Multitrack MIDI recording (16 tracks or 16 MIDI instrumentalists) in
real-time.

2 - FUNCTIONS:
The functions are very powerful mathematical algorithms that allows you
to transform your music with a single click of the mouse.

Quaderno's Functions include:

Accents- Agitation - Random - Rhythm Analysis - Arpeggiator - Cadences -
Calculation - Canons - Chords - Conversions - Untie - Echoes - Melodic
Evolution - Expression - Harmonization - Legato - Morphing -
Suppress Controllers -  Reduce Controllers - Progressions -
Quantize-Random - Quantize-Fill - Quantize-Logic - Quantization Reduction -
Re-Injection - Harmonic Resolution - Rhythm Tracker -  Staccato -
Suppress Doubles - Suppress Recovey - Send Sysex - Tessitura -
Melodic Transposition  - Formula  - Sorting - Wave Creation  .

3 - SPACES:

> SESSION:
The basic space of the program . It is made up of a large checkerboard
filled up with 196 small squares, each square is called: an Area. Each
Area is characterized by a name, a number, a MIDI channel, a
synthesizer, a sound, a Scale and a Quaderno. On the left of this large
checkerboard you can find a column with numbers from 1 to 56. Each
number represents a Pattern. Around this axis revolve 14 "satellite"
spaces.

> LIBRARY:
For saving all the files you create in the different spaces with a very
convenient feature, the ability to audition items from the Library
before importing them.

> SONG:
For structuring and organizing all the Patterns (musical figures)  you
have developed in the SESSION space, in the same manner as with a
classic sequencer but with functions specific to Quaderno. It's also the
place for export/import of MIDI files.

> MICRO-EDITION:
A graphic representation of all the MIDI events of the selected Pattern.
Each curve is a linear event representation of the various parameters of
your music. You can modify each of these curves independently and use
functions specific to this space: expansion, compression, horizontal and
vertical inversion.

> NOTE-EDIT:
Note events on a grid that represent the pitch on the vertical axis and
time on the horizontal axis. You can
make modifications and transformations on the selected notes
instantaneously, and choose to visualize the color of notes according to
their velocity or pitch,

> CHORDS:
This space allows creation and auditioning of all sorts of chords
according to the set of available scales in use in QUADERNO. You can use
your chord grids in different ways (send them to a free Area, or use
them to reharmonize one or several Patterns).

> HARMONIC MODULATIONS :
To create principles of harmonic modulation that you will be able to
apply in several ways. These harmonic
modulations can be used in real time.

> MIDI SETUP:
To manage and program all Midi peripherals.

> MONITORS:
To "see" the music that you have created in a very original way. The
different Monitors translate into images (color, speed, movement..) the
MIDI events of your music.

> MUSICAL  ANALYSIS :
To analyze the harmonic contents of any Pattern and see immediately
which scales the harmony involves and also to extract a chord grid from
this harmonic analysis and use these results in different ways.

> ORCHESTRATION:
To select and extract the different musical elements of a Pattern
according to 7 criteria and 2 Modes. Once you have selected the desired
elements, you can sort them out and send them into different Plans (up
to 6 Plans).

> DYNAMIC PADS:
To re-write in real time your sequence by playing with the mouse on the
4 fundamental elements of a Pattern: Velocities, Durations, Notes and
Rhythms.

> COMPOSER:
To algorithmically generate MIDI sequences without user input (without
keyboard or mouse). You'll select several musical parameters (rhythms,
notes, durations, MIDI controller ) and QUADERNO will generate music
based upon your program (up to 70 tracks).

> REAL-TIME:
Today, we are no longer work in a linear fashion but rather from a
multidimensional perspective. It is in the Real-Time space that you will
understand this new approach.  Here, multiple MIDI instrumentalists can
play and record together.

Thank you for taking the time to familiarize yourself with QUADERNO .We
hope that QUADERNO will enable you to compose in a completely different
way and that you will discover a new and  pleasurable approach to making
music.

The Biopython Project (http://www.biopython.org/) is a new open
collaborative effort to develop freely available Python libraries and
applications that address the needs of current and future work in
bioinformatics, including sequence analysis, structural biology, pathways,
expression data, etc.  When available, the source code will be released
as open source (http://www.biopython.org/License.shtml) under terms
similar to Python.

This is a Call for Participation for interested people to join the
project.  We are hoping to attract people from a diverse set of
backgrounds to help with code development, site maintenance, scientific
discussion, etc.  This project is open to everyone.  If you're interested,
please visit the web page, join the biopython mailing list, and let us
know what you think!

I am looking for a site of gene classification database for superfamily,
subfamily etc.
I hope if I have a gene or sequence and I can find what family it
belongs to.  Is there such a database available? Many thanks for any
suggestions.


Jin

	Dear all,

	I would like to know if there is any software that can do
"structural querys" to the full PDB (or in
