Consed
Description
The programs Phrap, Cross_match, and Phred are the leading programs for base calling, sequence comparisons, and sequence assembly. Phred, Cross_match, and Phrap are currently used in many large-scale DNA sequencing and mutation detection projects in academic and biotech settings.
Consed/Autofinish is a tool for viewing, editing, and finishing sequence assemblies created with phrap. Finishing capabilities include allowing the user to pick primers and templates, suggesting additional sequencing reactions to perform, and facilitating checking the accuracy of the assembly using digest and forward/reverse pair information.
