NAME

       2ft - 2-frame translation of a DNA sequence into protein

SYNOPSIS

       2ft [ -rs ] < seq-library-file

DESCRIPTION

       2ft  converts  both  strands  of  one or several DNA sequences into so-called "interleaved
       frame-translated" DNA sequences.  An "interleaved frame-translated"  DNA  sequence  is  an
       amino  acid  sequence  of  translated  overlapping  codons. For instance, the DNA sequence
       "ATGGCA" consisting of four overlapping codons would be translated  into  the  amino  acid
       sequence "MWGA".  Stop codons are represented by character "O".  seq-library-file contains
       one or several sequences in Pearson/Fasta format.

       This program is used for searching genomic or EST  sequence  databases  with  frame-search
       profiles generated by pftools program ptof.

OPTIONS

       -r     Translate only reversed (antisense) strand.

       -s     Translate only sense strand.

EXAMPLES

       See manual pages of pftools program ptof.
