|
6 Description
|
|
7
|
|
8 ggcskew calculates and plots the GC skew of the given sequence. The "skew"
|
|
9 of a sequence is calculated as (C-G)/(C+G) in GC skew. The program can
|
|
10 alternatively calculate AT skew, purine skew, and keto skew, as well as
|
|
11 cumulative skew. GC skew is used to observe various biological aspects
|
|
12 such as prediction of replication origin and terminus in bacteria.
