GrailEXP is a suite of tools for analyzing DNA sequences. While its primary use is to locate protein coding genes within DNA sequence, GrailEXP can also locate EST/mRNA alignments, certain types of promoters, polyadenylation sites, CpG islands, and repetitive elements. GrailEXP is a gene finder, an EST alignment utility, an exon prediction program, a promoter/polya recognizer, a CpG island finer, and a repeat masker, all rolled into one convenient package. GrailEXP is currently used primarily to analyze human and mouse, but many more systems are under development, including arabidopsis, drosophila, rice, corn, wheat, and many more.
