<p>Disclosed is a relational database system (146) for storing and manipulating genetic information. Associated with the database is a software system that allows a user to determine the relative position of a selected gene sequence within a genome. The system allows execution of a method of displaying the genetic locus of a bimolecular sequence. The method involves providing a database including multiple bimolecular sequences, at least some of which represent open reading frames located along a contiguous sequence on an organism's genome. An open reading frame for the sequence (595) for the sequence is selected (606) and displayed (620) together with adjacent open reading frames located upstream and downstream in the relative positions in which they occur on the contiguous sequence.</p> |
