Poly

Poly is a program for the quantitative analysis of simple sequence repeats (SSRs) in DNA, such as poly(dA).poly(dT) (a tract of adenines with a tract of thymines on the complementary strand).

The software is still in its beta stage, and there are many features to add. We have placed the source code on Bioinformatics.Org and licensed it under the GNU GPL in order for its development to be continued in an open manner.
