Although it was initially designed for ribosomal RNA data, it can be used for nucleic acid and amino acid sequence data. A central database contains processed (aligned) primary structure data. Additional descriptive data can be stored in database fields assigned to the individual sequences or linked via local or worldwide networks.
Originally designed to handle ribosomal RNA data, this tool can now also process nucleic acid and amino acid sequence data. A main database contains pre-processed (aligned) primary structure information, which can be supplemented with additional descriptive details stored in specific fields for individual sequences or connected through local or global networks.
