With PACRAT (Patterns, Analyses, Correlations. Remote Archive Testbed) we present an online database solution to the problem of accessing high-confidence sequences with specific relationships to classes of genes, such as upstream intergenic regions attached to tRNA genes. In addition the software contains a data warehousing and analysis-facilitating suite to streamline the process of analyzing the collected data. An unexpected additional benefit of the system is that it also provides easy access to sequences of lower confidence, and may be of assistance in such things as resolving ORF-call conflicts in genomic annotation projects.
