MV 12.5.1 Release Notes
MacVector 12.5.1 for Mac OS X System Requirements MacVector 12.5 runs on any PowerPC or Intel Macintosh running Mac OS X 10.5 or higher. It is a Universal Binary, meaning that it runs natively on both PowerPC and Intel based Macintosh computers. There are no specific hardware requirements for MacVector – if your machine can run OS X 10.5 or above, it can run MacVector. A complete installation of MacVector 12.5 uses approximately 160 MB of disk space. Installation and License Activation Install MacVector 12.5 by double-clicking on the MacVector 12.5.mpkg installer application. You will be prompted for a system administrator account and password during installation. As with MacVector 12.0, once installation is complete, you must enter a valid serial number and activation code the first time you run MacVector. This information is usually sent by e-mail and is also printed on the inside of the CD sleeve. If you previously installed MacVector 12.0 and have a serial number with a maintenance end date of Oct 1st 2011 or later, MacVector 12.5 will automatically use your existing license and you will not be required to enter the details again. Changes for MacVector 12.5.1 Bug Fixes Several occasional crashes have been fixed. Printing from the multiple sequence alignment editor now no longer prints additional blank pages. A bug leading to corrupted data when copying and pasting items between Restriction Enzyme documents has been fixed. The CDS translations display in the single sequence editor now updates correctly when residues are inserted before CDS features in the editor.

A QUANTITATIVE STUDY OF GENE IDENTIFICATION TECHNIQUES BASED ON EVOLUTIONARY RATIONALES by CYRIAC KANDOTH A THESIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the Missouri University of Science and Technology In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF SCIENCE IN COMPUTER SCIENCE 2007 Approved by Dr. Fikret Ercal, co-Advisor Dr. Ronald L Frank, co-Advisor Dr. Jennifer Leopold iii ABSTRACT Current gene identification (GI) techniques typically rely on matching biological or chemical properties of specific genes, specific species, specific ecotypes, etc. Other techniques might involve homology searches using known gene sequences. Since they are either too specific or they depend on known genes, these techniques can never claim to be complete i.e. to have identified all possible genes in a genome. This is an inherent drawback caused by the immense complexity of gene organization. However, it is possible to get closer to a more global generalized GI technique by using evolutionary rationales.
