AntiHunter is a new web-based tool for the identification of expressed sequence tag (EST) antisense transcripts from BLAST output. In order to perform an analysis, user is required to input a genomic sequence plus an associated list of transcript names and coordinates of the genomic region (i.e. genome annotation). After masking the repeated regions (if any), program will perform a BLASTN search of the input sequence versus the selected EST database, reporting by Email the EST entries that reveal a putative antisense transcript with respect to the user supplied list.
