Bioperl module for FPC: This module is part of the latest (1.5.1) release of bioperl. The FPC bioperl module reads an FPC file and allows different queries including the computation of the Sulston score. The Module Documentation is in the format used by bioperl and lists all queries.

FPC Genome Browser: The GMOD Genome Browser (Gbrowse) uses a configuration file and a mySQL database. We provide the configuration file for FPC along with the script to translate an FPC file into the GFF format into the mySQL database; the script uses the FPC bioperl module. The configuration and gff file works with the GMOD CGI interface or the AGCoL Java Gbrowse interface.
