I have in my possession a paper by Hamilton Smith et al. (PNAS, vol. 87:826,
1990) describing a program called MOTIF. This program searches for conserved
patterns of amino acid residues in widely divergent proteins. I would very
much like to know where I might get this program. I have already found a
program called MOTIF on the EMBL ftp server. The output from this pragram is
completely different from that described in the paper, though, so I don't think
it is the program I am looking for. Any help would be greatly appeciated.
