SOOP 2.16

:: DESCRIPTION

SOOP (System for Optimized Overgo Picking) is a tool for the design and selection of overgo probes optimized for high-throughput comparative mapping. Soop designs “overgo” DNA hybridization probes either from a sequence comparison or a straight FASTA file. The basic idea behind designing probes from sequence comparisons is that orthologous sequences between two species that are highly concerved are likely to also be conserved in a third species. Soop runs in these two modes depending on the type of file passed to it as the last parameter on the command line.
