GENSCAN

GENSCAN, a computer program for gene identification, uses this model. In this section we shall consider how GENSCAN determines various parameters of the model to get meaningful results. The program uses a training set of 238 multi-exon genes and 142 single-exon genes. These are completely sequenced genes from GenBank. On whole, the training set consists of about 2.5 million base pairs .
