Analysis of biological sequences on small computers.

We review a wide range of programs for micro- and minicomputers that facilitate the collection and analysis of DNA, RNA, or protein sequences. Special-purpose programs that perform a single function and general-purpose programs that perform a set of functions are both considered. The information presented should be useful to any biologist who wishes to obtain a computer program to aid in sequence investigations.
