Polymer sequences are assembled into bins. A first number of bins are populated with polymer sequences. The polymer sequences in each bin are assembled into one or more consensus sequences representative of the polymer sequences of the bin. The consensus sequences of the bins are compared to determine relationships, if any, between the consensus sequences of the bins. The bins are modified based on the relationships between the consensus sequences of the bins. The polymer sequences are reassembled in the modified bins to generate one or more modified consensus sequences for each bin representative of the modified bins. In another aspect of the invention sequence similarities and …

Why it's free to use
- Filed March 25, 1999. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended March 25, 2019.
