Tools for handling and analysing data with ambiguities

Usage summary

The programs accessible on the left menu expect plain text files (option save as text on your text processor or tabulator).
You should upload the data files to the appropriate program, then you obtain a page with a link (click it) to the results file(s). Whence you see the results file dont forget to save it using the save as command of you browser.
Typically the results files are deleted after 24 hours, therefore if you have not saved your results file you need to rerun the programs.

-The data files should be in UNIFORMAT, see examples below; basically
identifier {tab mark} allele,allele [ | allele,allele ...][{tab mark} allele, allele...][{tab mark}#comments]

-The kit description, reactivity data and substitution files are described in the pages of the corresponding utilities

-If using your data, or abridged UNIFORMAT, you should run uniformate before frequency estimation.

Examples:

	id	A*01,A*02:01	k-,k+	# a simple double heterozygous

	id	@	k+,k-	# an untyped case for first locus

	# a homozygous-or-blank-heterozygous for the second locus
	id	A*02,A*05	k+

	# a real homozygous for first locus and a multiple allele in second locus
	id	A*01,A*01	B*01:02,B*14:01&B*14:14&B*14:46&B*14:54

	# a case of multiple allele pairs for a locus
	id	B*01:02,B*14:01|B*01:02,B*14:14|B*01:02,B*14:46|B*01:02,B*14:54
