P1 clones Stack
                                       version 1.01
                                       March, 1992
     

     This is a simple HyperCard stack for keeping track of clones
that were constructed with the bacteriophage P1 cloning
system.  Usually a clone will have the following information:
a name, an approximate size, some sequence information from
the left and right ends of the cloned insert, and maybe some
internal sequence information. 
     The stack consists of an Index card and a set of
clone cards. The Index card contains the names of clones in 
a scrolling field. Clicking on a name takes you to the card for 
that clone. A New button is available for adding new clones to 
the stack.
     Each clone card contains the following information about
a clone: its name, a number, approximate size, DNA sequence
information for the left and right ends of the inserted DNA
and for internal sequence information.  When you obtain a new
clone just make a new card for it, give it a name and number,
and enter any sequence information that you have into the
text field.  Click on the buttons for the left end, right end or
internal sequences for the appropriate text field. The information on
the card can be printed out or the sequence in a field can be saved 
to a file in PIR format for use with other sequence analysis software.
Short sequences can be searched for with the Find button.
     The p1clones.hqx is a binhex encoded version of the .sit file 
which can be transferred in text modes.  You can use Stuffit to
decode the binhex file and then unstuff the resulting sit file.
