You can find very useful, in your situation, its management of very large sequences with a very fine system of IO. In general pattern matching is not different between PERL and BioPerl, but with a better IO you can use BioPerl to manage sequences, some biological toolkit like EMBOSS (www.emboss.org) in order to analize your sequences and then parsing the outputs with BioPerl that have a lot of parser. In this way you remain into the higher standard of biological community and you have no to worry about memory usage, dimension of file and so on. Take a look at: http://www.bioperl.org/Core/Latest/bptutorial.html and then if you want more http://doc.bioperl.org/ Remo _____________________________________ Remo Sanges - Ph.D. Student BioGeM - IGB Gene Expression & Sequencing Core Lab Via Pietro Castellino 111 80131 Naples - Italy Tel:+390816132303 - Fax:+390816132262 [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED] _____________________________________ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
