The latest version of the FASTA3 package of programs, is
available as:
ftp://ftp.virginia.edu/pub/fasta/fasta31t01.shar.Z
This version implements fasty3 and tfasty3, which are described in
Pearson et al (1997) Genomics 46:24-36. fastx3 and fasty3 compare
cDNA sequences with protein databases, translating the DNA and
allowing frameshifts. fastx3 has been available for about 9 months;
fasty3 differs from fastx3 by allowing frameshifts within codons, as
well between codons.
Fasta31t and fasta30t include an html file and two cgi files that
simplify setting up a local fasta WWW server.
With version 31t, the structure of the fasta code has changed
significantly to accomodate a broader range of comparison functions.
Please inform me of bugs.
