TITLE           E. coli Reference

OCCURRENCE      ARB_EDIT4/Edit/Reload Ecoli sequence

DESCRIPTION     The SAI entry 'ECOLI' is used by the editor and other
                programs to detect and display the current cursor position
                with respect to the homologous position within the
                E. coli sequence.

                If you have no SAI 'ECOLI' yet this creates one:

                 * Search your ecoli sequence and select it.
                 * Go to species information window and
                   * press SPECIES/COPY to create a copy of the LINK{selected.hlp}.
                     This will create a species with ID 'xxx0' or similar, where 'xxx' is
                     the ID of your selected species.
                   * select the 'name' field and change it to 'ECOLI'
                   * press 'SPECIES/Convert to SAI'

NOTES           After inserting or deleting gaps in the whole alignment (ARB_NT/
                Sequence/Insert/Delete column) the reference SAI has to be
                reloaded by this function.

                You may as well choose any other sequence as reference sequence.

                See LINK{ed4_nds.hlp} to change the default name 'Ecoli'.

BUGS            No bugs known
