bacteria to fungi to plants to man. It is also increasingly used for
databases with non-biological content.

+ tarball vanished from the downlowad page. So this is not for us even

+Comment: If you stumble upon angler at

+Pkg-Description: quality-control checking of finished cDNA clone sequences
+ cdna_db is a software system designed for quality-control checking of
+ finished cDNA clone sequences, and their computational analysis. The
+ combination of a relational db (MySQL) schema, and an
+ object-orientated perl API make it easy to implement high-level
+ analyses of these transcript sequences.
+ .
+ The cdna_db can store cDNA clone sequences, and ESTs and
+ consensus/contig sequences also derived from these clones. These are
+ then used by the system to check cDNA clone sequence identity etc
+ (see deneral_doc.txt). For each clone multiple DNA sequence versions
+ can be stored, if for instance, the finished DNA sequence is revised
+ as part of the sequencing process.
+ .
+ A blast pipeline is implemented together with a job control system
+ (with LSF underlying) so that multiple CPUs can be used in parallel
+ to carry out the blasts of large datasets. The searches can be made
+ incremental, so as more cDNA sequences are added to the databank,
+ just the new clones are blasted.
+ .
+ Utility scripts are provided to delete previous search results, and
+ dump cDNA clones sequences (such as those that passed the QC
+ checking) from the cdna_db.
