Comparative analysis of related DNA sequences has been simplified by the transformation of data in the standard A, G, C, T format into a set of geometric symbols that promote pattern recognition. Previously, comparing more than 2 or 3 sequences simultaneously has been difficult because of the monotonous patterns established by letters. Here 33 sequences are simultaneously compared to demonstrate the ease with which nucleotide substitutions are accurately identified. This has been accomplished by writing a Word-Perfect macro program to facilitate this transformation. Since this word processing program is widely used, performing this kind of analysis is readily achievable in most laboratories involved in DNA sequence analysis.
