Compasss Description

COMPASSS (COMplex Pattern of Sequence Search Software) is a simple and effective tool that allows mining whole genomes for the presence of complex elements. The tool is user-friendly, flexible, not resource intensive and capable of browse whole genomes in minutes. COMPASSS applies the well known Wu-Manber multiple pattern matching algorithm to exhaustively search for the motif in the entire se-quence. Input elements can be simple conserved sequences (as in BLAST engine), partially or highly degenerated sequences, or even multiple degenerated sequences, joined by poorly conserved variable length spacers. This small application will provide the following search types: DAS, NCBI (database) or Batch.
