SIZE DATE (KBYTES) ARCHIVED COMPRESSION FORMAT(S) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- /mac/misc/molbio/amplify1.2.cpt.hqx 254 6/3/93 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Design, analyze, and simulate experiments involving the polymerase chain reaction, a technique used by molecular biologists to amplify selected segments of DNA. /mac/system.extensions/font/bitmap/bkgcuclcfonts.sit.hqx 44 7/12/93 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Size: 9, 10, 12, 14, 18 & 24 A colored font, very close to Courier, that is useful for nucleic acid sequence editors. /mac/misc/molbio/dnaid1.8.cpt.hqx 221 1/7/94 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 A DNA-oriented full screen editor. Can handle several sequence in different windows. Has powerful search functions, which can help identify open reading frames, regulatory signals, consensus sequences, potential oligonucleotides annealing sites and any complex or degenerated patterns of nucleotides or aminoacids you specify. /mac/misc/molbio/dnastacks1.1.sit.hqx 990 2/5/96 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 A collection of utilities for editing or coloring multiple DNA or protein sequence alignments, performing numerous data conversions or analyses related to molecular systematics, and much more; requires HyperCard 2.x. /mac/hypercard/education/dnateacher1.3.sit.hqx 162 3/3/94 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Animated sequences showing the two processes of DNA: Replication and Protein Synthesis. Includes molecular structural diagrams of each component of DNA, as well as a list of possible codons and the amino acids synthesized from them. /mac/misc/molbio/elphofit2.31.cpt.hqx 279 7/24/94 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Evaluate data from native gel electrophoresis of proteins, DNA, viruses, vesicles, conjugated vaccines, etc. Analysis is based on linear or nonlinear Ferguson plots [plot of log(mobility) vs. gel concentration]. Command-line interface only. /mac/misc/molbio/geneconstructionkitdemo.sit.hqx 900 1/12/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 The Gene Construction Kit is a full color DNA manipulation, design, and drawing tool for molecular biologists. It allows for sequence based plasmid manipulation and display in an intuitive way. It is great for designing cloning strategies and for creating illustrations of cloning experiments. /mac/misc/molbio/macp12.sit.hqx 166 4/21/94 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 A protein property multi-profile plot program; plots hydropathy profiles, biophysical characteristics, structural propensity; allows simultaneous plotting of two profiles selected from the 12 built-in amino acid property scales; scales may be exchanged for adaptability. /mac/graphics/graphicsutil/macpdb2pov.sit.hqx 182 10/4/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 MacPDB2POV assists in the creation of photorealistic ball and stick images of molecules. MacPDB2POV reads a protein data bank file and uses that to write a Persistence of Vision Ray (POVRay) ray tracer file. /mac/misc/molbio/macpattern3.2.sit.hqx 289 4/21/94 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Supplements standard programs by offering tools that can give clues to the functions of newly discovered proteins; use of databases formatted in the PROSITE and BLOCKS manner; v3.2 fixes bug calling E.coli frequency table in error; adapted for BLOCKS Rel.7 (Thompson-Higgins-Gibson weighting method). /mac/misc/molbio/multidna.hqx 9 4/9/92 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Edit and compare multiple DNA sequences conveniently. Can import, export text files. Requires HyperCard 2.0 /mac/misc/molbio/oligo1.0.cpt.hqx 24 7/13/93 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Allows molecular biologists to keep track of oligonucleotides. You need to type in sequence and its absorbance at 260nm. The stack then calculates the base composition, length, and concentration. Also a hot text list allowing you to jump to a particular card (requires Hypercard) by clicking on a list entry. /mac/misc/molbio/oligoanalyzer1.0.sit.hqx 145 8/3/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 A fully functional oligonucleotide analysis program. It calculates the molecular weight and the predicted melting temp. of your oligo. It can also read your oligo sequences back to you. /mac/misc/molbio/plazmidz1.0.cpt.hqx 21 11/15/91 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Display the position of genes and restriction sites. /mac/misc/molbio/seqvu1.0.sit.hqx 880 5/8/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 SeqVu is an application for molecular biologists. It is an alignment editor with analysis options that allows you to work quickly and simply with multiple sequences. It is ideal for manually correcting alignments produced using alignment software such as ClustalV.SeqVu goes beyond simple editing and allows you to produces publication quality figures, complete with outlined identity or homology. You can also shade residues which are of certain types, that have identity at aposition, or are homologous. You can display outlining and shading simultaneously, so that you can see, for example, identity and homology simultaneously. There is also a novel hydropathy display which shows hydrophobicity on multiple sequences using coloured shading. Documents maybe exported to graphics programs for further editing. Fat Binary. /mac/misc/molbio/speakquencher1.4.cpt.hqx 156 2/2/92 BinHex4.0,Compact1.51 Read DNA sequences to user through the Mac's speaker. /mac/misc/molbio/toppredtwo1.2.sit.hqx 584 6/13/95 BinHex4.0,StuffIt3.50 Predict transmembrane segments in integral membrane proteins, as well as their possible topology.
