o The BioSCAN e-mail server databases have been updated. The
currently available databases are as follows:
GenBank Release-83
SWISS-PROT Release-29
PIR Release-41
GenPept Release-83
o BioSCAN (Biological Sequence Comparative Analysis Node) is a
computational tool designed for similarity analysis of biological
sequences. Its massively parallel computer system performs rapid,
rigorous, searches of biosequence databases and is compatible with
popular software packages such as BLAST and FASTA.
To receive current set of instructions on using the BioSCAN
e-mail server, send an e-mail to the address "bioscan at cs.unc.edu".
Put the word "HELP"or "help" on a line by itself in the body of the
message. A tutorial ("tutor.txt") can be retrieved via anonymous
FTP to "ftp.cs.unc.edu" from "/pub/bioscan" directory. Please
send your questions and comments to "bioscan-info at cs.unc.edu".
