The Results page shows an overview of the selection, with relative sequence lengths displayed next to the relevant accession number. Mouse over each sequence for further details.

Clicking 'START ACT' launches the Webstart version of ACT and displays the comparison in full. - Click here for screenshot.

The webACT comparisons show the similarity in gene organisation and the homology within the two groups (top two comparisons and the bottom comparison), and the much more limited similarity in gene organisation between the two groups and the homology between their shared genes (second from bottom comparison).

ACT itself was developed at the Sanger Institute. For instructions on it's features and use please visit the - ACT website
