NAME
     Psequin - submit sequences to Genbank, EMBL, and DDBJ

SYNOPSIS
     Psequin  [-b]  [-bse]  [-e]  [-f filename]  [-gc]	[-h] [-oldaln] [-oldasn]
     [-oldgph] [-oldseq] [-oldsource] [-s] [-w] [-x]

DESCRIPTION
     Psequin is a program designed to aid in the submission of sequences to  the
     GenBank,  EMBL, and DDBJ sequence databases. It was written at the National
     Center for Biotechnology Information, part of the National Library of Medi-
     cine at the National Institutes of Health.

     Psequin can assemble the essential elements of a GenBank record from simple
     FASTA-format text files. For example, the program obtains	the  proper  ge-
     netic  code  from an organism name, and automatically determines coding re-
     gion intervals by back-translation from the protein  sequence.  An  on-line
     help  window scrolls to the appropriate place as the user moves between and
     within data entry forms, giving relevant details on what information is ex-
     pected.

     Psequin also contains a number of built-in validation functions for quality
     assurance. Features such as splice sites and coding region translations are
     checked for accuracy or internal consistency. Double-clicking on  an  error
     message  launches	an  appropriate editor by which the user can correct any
     problems.

     Psequin provides live, clickable views of the data in a variety of formats,
     including a report form, GenBank flatfile, EMBL flatfile, and  a  graphical
     view. Double clicking on an item in any of these formats launches an editor
     for  that	item. The editor is capable of maintaining correct feature table
     positions as the underlying sequence is edited. It can display features  on
     the sequence during editing, and allows feature intervals to be adjusted by
     direct manipulation.
