It is available from ftp.virginia.edu in "pub/fasta/dos". This release has not been tested extensively. Fortunately, the changes required to move the unix/mac version to DOS were modest (most changes involved changes from int to long and some work with "far" pointers). At the moment, there is no "Windows" or "Win32S" version of FASTA. If you have any problems with the program, please send me email. The FASTA package is not in the public domain. It is copyrighted by William R. Pearson and the University of Virginia. You are welcome to download the program from ftp.virginia.edu, but please do not offer it for redistribution without contacting me first.

The development is currently progressing rapidly. In particular, the development of more sophisticated client/server technology to overcome less refined features of the generic http protocol, including authorisation, state, security, synchronisation issues Biological applications start to become indispensible, in particular database retrieval sophisticated program input linkage analysis gene (exon) prediction 3D modelling: MIME types 3D modelling: VRML The most important development 'backstage' is to expand server-server communication for data update and data presentation issues. We welcome papers describing results from a wide range of possible methodologies, including access to, and analyses of the databases of biomolecular sequences and structures, simple conceptual and computational evolutionary models, and success/quality/accessibility reports. Reports on molecular modelling via internet tools and special user group communication, such as MOO interlinking, as well as generic methods for maintenance of information are welcome. Current plans are for electronic publication of the papers by the MIT Press, in both HTML and postscript. People wishing to present posters without publishing a full paper may submit an abstract. Preregistration for the conference is required for the inclusion of a paper in the conference proceedings.

Apparently Hox clusters in agnathans have not been studied in detail (1994). But Ruddle and coworkers have cloned a bunch of homeobox genes from agnathans. In the following paper they suggest that lampreys have 3 Hox clusters (although they also propose that amphioxus has 2, which has been disproven in the Garcia-Fernandez paper mentioned below).

Amphioxus has only one Hox cluster; see: RA Garcia-Fernandez J., Holland P.W.; RT "Archetypal organisation of the amphioxus Hox gene cluster"; RL Nature 370:563-566(1994).
