Hi,
We would like to announce the launch of a new free service which gives 
public access to the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute Trace Archive via 
sequence similarity. The archive contains records of all publicly 
available DNA sequencing reads. The search engine, available at:
 
http://trace.ensembl.org/cgi-bin/tracesearch

allows users to identify any sequences in the archive with significant 
similarity to their query sequence. Users are able to search the whole 
archive in a few seconds, or alternatively to limit the search by species, 
sequencing centre or trace type. We use a version of the SSAHA algorithm 
to distribute an index over a cluster of machines so that we can continue 
to scale the service as the archive grows. 

Full Story:

http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Info/Press/

We welcome any feedback and suggestions for improvements to this service.

Please forward this email to collegues and collaborators who may be 
interested.

Thanks,

On behave of the TraceSearch development team.
