In silico cloning of a new protein kinase, Aik2, related to Drosophila Aurora using the new tool: EST Blast

In Silico Biol. 1999;1(2):123-8.

Abstract

In this short communication we report for the first time to our knowledge the use of ESTBlast to in silico clone a new gene and a step by step description of this particular in silico cloning project.
