Abstract
We have developed a tool set which allows for hairpin
sequences to be aligned against a database of sequences, and then for
these results to be viewed graphically. The tool set consists of
five Perl scripts which run the BLAST alignment and process the
reports, and three R scripts which accept the processed data and create
multiplicity graphs and an alignment viewgraph. These graphs
allow us to examine the interactions between non-codingRNAs (ncRNAs)
and protein coding genes in Plasmodium falciparum, and give insight into the functional make-up of the intergenic regions.
