<H2>Description</H2>
<p>
   ggcskew calculates and plots the GC skew of the given sequence. The "skew"<br />
   of a sequence is calculated as (C-G)/(C+G) in GC skew. The program can<br />
   alternatively calculate AT skew, purine skew, and keto skew, as well as<br />
   cumulative skew. GC skew is used to observe various biological aspects<br />
   such as prediction of replication origin and terminus in bacteria.<br />
    <br />
   G-language SOAP service is provided by the<br />
   Institute for Advanced Biosciences, Keio University.<br />
   The original web service is located at the following URL:<br />

<br />
   WSDL(RPC/Encoded) file is located at:<br />
