Abstract

FIE (5’-end Information Extraction) is a web-based program designed primarily to extract the sequence of the regions around the 5’-end and around the translation initiation sites for a particular gene, based on information provided by LocusLink.

Key words: gene start region, promoter region, translation start region, sequence extraction, LocusLink, RefSeq
