A METHOD FOR PREDICTING GENE PRESENCE IN A QUERY SEQUENCE

摘要

The present invention provides a method for predicting gene presence in a query sequence. The query sequence is a biological sequence. The method comprises steps of clustering and storing middle portion of expressed Sequence Tags (EST) of organisms in a database of a server through an electronic device as representative expressed sequence tags and candidate expressed sequence tags in a form of clusters. A query sequence that needs to be matched and a similarity index is provided through an input device to the database of the server. The query sequence is compared with the stored representative and the corresponding candidate ESTs according to the similarity index consequently. The compared results are displayed through a display of the input device.
