Electronic fingerprinting of RNA
Departments of Biochemistry and Botany, and Molecular Genetics Program, University of Kansas Lawrence, KS 66045, USA
Received August 17, 1987. Software has been developed to assist RNA fingerprinting analysis. One program generates, from a DNA sequence data file, the oligonucleotides resulting from digestion of an RNA transcript labeled with any specified nucleotide(s). Oligonucleotides are sorted according to their position on the fingerprint. Expected molar yields and products of secondary redigestion are also indicated. A second program facilitates calculation of experimental molar yields of oligonucleotides.
