- You might want to take a look at MARKER - you can ftp it from
-
- ftp.bio.indiana.edu in the /molbio/ibmpc directory.
-
- Here's a clip from its documentation:
-
- MARKER is a program for creating DNA length standards and restriction frag-
-
- ments pattern. You may either use it to create some new length standards
-
- (from DNA you already have) or to check out the cleavage sites / digestion
-
- pattern of any sequences.
-
- There are some other programs which do some or all of the things that MARKER
-
- can do. But they are much less comfortable. You'll see.
-
-
-
- MARKER V1.0 is FREEWARE. You are not allowed to remove the Copyright infor-
-
- mation. I'll trie to make updates every 3 to 6 months.
-
- - Start program from that directory by typing marker <RETURN>
-
- - Change to the directory where your file is saved
-
- (using the first five menu options)
-
- - ENTER filename
-
- - LOAD file (be sure that the filespec is correct first)
-
- - CHOOSE restriction enzyme(s)
-
- - DIGEST
-
- - MAKE (and print) restriction map
-
- - SHOW restriction fragments pattern
-
-
-
-
- Best of luck,
