Abstract:
A method for identification and quantitative characterization of sequence sites of potential interest from one or more complex organic molecules, comprising the steps of:selecting one or more desired target sequence listings for analysis, scanning via computer said one or more target sequences for potential characterization sites, scoring said potential characterization sites using user-defined scoring matrices, deriving by comparing the sequence sites of interest from known sequence targets, determining the frequency of sequence content at each sequence position, and scoring for each possible amino acid or nucleic acid base pair sequences at each position based on said sequence content frequency, sorting said potential characterization sites according to predetermined scoring characteristics, returning results based upon said sorting, and listing said potential characterization sites within said one or more target sequences, said one or more target sequence listings code for data selected from the group comprising protein amino acid polypeptides, DNA nucleotide, and RNA nucleotide sequence listings.
