To: Multiple recipients of list HUM-MOLGEN <HUM-MOLGEN@NIC.SURFNET.NL> Subject: COMP: DNA software use From: Jurg Ott <ott@linkage.cpmc.columbia.edu> Date: Mon, 17 Jun 1996 10:03:21 -0400 From: HERMANN EIBEL <EIBEL@NZ11.UKL.UNI-FREIBURG.DE> We are using DNAStar for Windows. Basically, the program contains all you need but unfortunately,theindividual programs are somtimes a little complicated to handle and, much worse, DNAStar is not very stable (even with 32MB RAM). The file exchange with other programs (like Vector NTI from ATCC) is also problematic since DNAStar writes a few comments into ASCII files containing DNA sequences which prevent such files from being opened by other programs. The search algorithms in the DNAStar program Geneman must be terrible since it takes for hours to run simple homology searches with short sequences against Genbank subsets. In our experience it is much faster to search directly at Genbank or EMBL via the internet using their WWW services. Hermann Eibel Klinische Forschergruppe f.
