Abstract: | The rapidly growing body of sequenced DNA demands efficientcomputer programs for its analysis and storage. The programdescribed in this paper, SEQ-ED, has been designed to handlea large number of DNA sequences up to 200 kilobases [kb] longstored in a sequence library. In order to minimize the requiredstorage space, the sequences are stored in a compressed formatusing three binary digits per base. In the development of thisprogram, special care has been given to make it easy to usefor molecular biologists without any previous computer experience.
