NAME

  BS_RepeatSmasher.pl

VERSION

  Version 2.10

DESCRIPTION

  This utility uses GeneDesign functions to minimize internal local alignments
    of gene features. The BioStudio twist is that it replaces internal features
    like PCRTags and codon swaps after the "repeat smashing" is done (GeneDesign
    has no respect for annotation). Given a chromosome and a range that contains
    at least one whole gene, this utility will generate a new version with all
    of the genes inside that range repeat smashed.
