Exon_17  Five basic things that the UNIX version of GCG can do.

Start gcg: type "setgcg" and hit return. Next type "gcg" and hit 
return again.

1. How many pancreatic pentane synthase enzyme sequences 
have been reported?

type this:

	stringsearch

and hit return, then  follow the prompts.

2. How can I enter my sequence and edit it?

     type this:

	seqed filename

and hit return. This starts the GCG sequence editor. Enter some 
reference information for the sequence. Then type control-D and 
hit return. Next enter the letters for your sequence or "paste" the 
sequence text from the UNIX screen buffer. When finished, type 
control-D again, then type help  to explore  other SEQED options 
or type  exit and  then hit return to save the new sequence.

3. Is My sequence like any other known sequence?

      type this:

	fasta -check 

and hit return, then follow the prompts. These commands are 
good for nucleic acid searches.

OR

        type this:

	blast -check 

and hit return, then follow the prompts. This command is very good 
for protein searches. 

4. What's the restriction map of this sequence look like?

         type this:

	map  -check

and hit return, then follow the prompts. This command creates 
a text file showing the location of restriction sites for  the chosen 
enzymes.


5.  I need a primer for this region of a sequence. Can GCG design 
the primer for me?

type this:

	prim 

and hit return, then follow the prompts.
