Abstract

SIGNAL SCAN is a program that utilizes a transcription factor database to find potential transcription factor binding sites in DNA sequences. The program is now in its third version. The SIGNAL SCAN transcription factor database format has changed and the program output format has been improved. New features allow the user to update the SIGNAL SCAN database automatically, to retrieve original journal citations and to develop user signal databases. The program now uses an indexing algorithm, improving scanning speed by a factor of 3. SIGNAL SCAN is now network compatible and is available for IBM-compatible PC, Unix and VMS platforms.

摘要

SIGNAL SCAN是一个利用转录因子数据库在DNA序列中寻找潜在转录因子结合位点的程序。该程序目前处于第三版。SIGNAL SCAN转录因子数据库格式已发生变化，程序输出格式也得到了改进。新功能允许用户自动更新SIGNAL SCAN数据库、检索原始期刊引用并开发用户信号数据库。该程序现在使用一种索引算法，扫描速度提高了两倍。SIGNAL SCAN现在与网络兼容，可用于IBM兼容个人电脑、Unix和VMS平台。
