MOTIVATION There are many tools for variant calling and effect prediction, but little to tie together large sample groups. Aggregating, sorting and summarizing variants and effects across a cohort is often done with ad hoc scripts that must be re-written for every new project. In response, we have written MuCor, a tool to gather variants from a variety of input formats (including multiple files...

As an extension of our analysis of the translational apparatus of Mucor racemosus we have isolated a gene encoding a ribosomal protein of Mucor. Based on a method developed for S. cerevisiae, we identified by hybrid selection and in vitro translation a lambda-Charon 4A clone containing the genomic copy of a Mucor ribosomal protein. The gene consisted of two exons of 57 and 387 nucleotides. The ...
