| Abstract: | We describe an interactive computational tool, GENEVIEW, that allows the scientist to retrieve, analyze, display and exchange genetic information. The scientist may request a display of information from a GenBank locus, request that a restriction map be computed, stored and superimposed on GenBank information, and interactively view this information. GENEVIEW provides an interface between the GenBank data base and the programs of the Lilly DNA Computing Environment (DNACE). This interface stores genetic information in a simple, free format that has become the universal convention of DNACE; this format will serve as the convention for all future software development at Eli Lilly and Company, and could serve as a convention for genetic information exchange. |
