I believe that Intelligenetics and GCG both have programs that can do pattern
searches in sequences. We use the GCG program in the lab, but it is part of
a much bigger analysis program loaded on the departmental server (UNIX-
based).
If you want a database of peptides and motifs, check out the WEHI gopher
site. If you have Web access, you can go to:
gopher://wehi1.wehi.edu.au:70/77/MHCPEP.DB/.index/index
Otherwise, you should be able to simply gopher to wehi.edu.au and maneuver
through the menus.
