PC/GENE: Searches for Functional Sites in Nucleic Acids and Proteins

The PC/GENE package contains several programs that scan nucleic acid sequences for predefined functional sites or sequence motifs. These include EUKPROM, which searches for a TATA-box, a Cap signal, a CCAAT-box, and a GC-box. Also included is SIGNAL which searches for splice junctions, eukaryotic ribosome binding sites, prokaryotic ribosome binding sites, and E. coli promoter sequences.
