In response to " Does anyone out there know of a simple Macintosh program that
will produce a drawing of a plasmid identifying restriction enzyme sites
by enzyme name and location using just a list of restriction enzymes
with numbers (digestion sites)? I don't need the accuracy a GCG
program, just something simple and quick"
Couple years ago a program called Plasmid draw, developed by Wolfram Siede,
was published in BioTechniques vol 5 n 5. The program has been improved by
comparison to what has been published . It allows to draw the plasmid as a
circular or as a linear map,on which you can add some genes.
The address of Wolfram Siede was
