CEDIT, a C interface and macro facility that provides for the colour editing of protein sequence alignments (up to 2000 sequences, 5000 residues each) using Microsoft Word 5.0 for PCs is presented. CEDIT uses the ability of MS-Word 5.0 to display letters with the desired colour to easily identify conservative homologies across the sequences. A glossary file with useful macros for the sequence editing is provided, along with several utilities programs for error checking, estimating sequence similarities and homology significance. CEDIT has a menu interface and a context sensitive help.
介绍了CEDIT,这是一种C语言接口和宏工具,它利用适用于个人计算机的Microsoft Word 5.0对蛋白质序列比对(最多2000个序列,每个序列5000个残基)进行颜色编辑。CEDIT利用MS-Word 5.0以所需颜色显示字母的功能,轻松识别序列间的保守同源性。提供了一个带有用于序列编辑的有用宏的词汇表文件,以及几个用于错误检查、估计序列相似性和同源性显著性的实用程序。CEDIT具有菜单界面和上下文相关帮助。
