Database and software for the analysis of mutations at the human hprt gene.

PMCID: PMC308315  PMID: 7937053

Abstract

A computerized database containing DNA sequence information regarding human HPRT mutants has been created. The database itself is in the dBASE format and contains information on about 1500 mutants. In addition, an IBM PC compatible software package to analyze the information in the database has been developed. Both the database and software are freely available via the Internet.
