TM-Finder

Specify your query sequence

Entering sequence into this window and clicking the "run TM Finder" button will run the TM-Finder program (originally written by Dr. Charles Deber and Chen Wang) on the sequence you entered.

To enter your sequence, you can either type it in the "Sequence" form or "cut" and "paste" it from a source or enter the name of the sequence file in the "Sequence File" box below.

Sequence File:

To turn off segment post processing on the TM predictions, set it to close gaps of length "0" and set the minimum segment size to "1".
