WWW Signal Scan IMD Search Service

Function: Find and list homologies of published signal sequences in the IMD database with the input DNA sequence.
The analysis is done using the SIGSCAN 4.05 version suite of programs developed by Dr. Dan Prestridge, Information on SIGSCAN is maintained at the Advanced Biosciences Computing Center, University of Minnesota.. The IMD database is maintained by Dr. Qing Chen at University of Colorado. This WWW Signal Scan is based on WEB version implemented by: Meena Sakharkar at Biocomputing Research and User Support Technology Group, National University of Singapore.
