The European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite (EMBOSS) is a well established, high quality package of open source software tools for molecular biology. It includes over 200 applications for molecular sequence analysis and general bioinformatics including sequence alignment, rapid database searching and sequence retrieval, motif identification and pattern analysis and much more. The EMBOSS User's Guide is the official and definitive guide to the package, containing comprehensive information and practical instructions from the people who developed it: * No prior experience with EMBOSS necessary * Set up and maintenance - get up and running quickly * Hands-on tutorial - learn EMBOSS the easy way, by working through practical examples * Data types and file formats - learn about the biological data that can be manipulated and analysed * In-depth explanation of the EMBOSS command line - learn advanced 'power user' features * Practical guides to popular EMBOSS GUIs (wEMBOSS and Jemboss)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

"The European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite (EMBOSS) is a high quality, well documented package of open source software tools for molecular biology. It includes over 200 applications for molecular sequence analysis and other common tasks in bioinformatics. It integrates the core applications with a range of popular third party software packages under a consistent and powerful command line interface. The software has many useful features; for example, it automatically copes with data in a variety of formats and allows for transparent retrieval of sequence data from the web"--
