A UGUR is a program to predict, display and analyze the three-dimensional structure of B-DNA. The user can choose one of six models to predict the helical parameters of a given sequence. These parameters are then used to generate the coordinates of the DNA model in three-dimensional space (trajectory). The trajectory can be displayed and rotated on a graphics terminal The trajectory and helical parameters can also be searched for bends and structural homologues.
