1. Introduction

 This system extracts protein motifs from protein databases using
genetic algorithms and the minimum description length(MDL) principle.

2. Environment

 The system runs only on PIM/m or Multi-PSI with PSI-III.
It does'nt run on Pseudo PIM/m nor Pseudo Multi-PSI.

4. Installation

 The system is composed of KL1 programs, ESP programs and data files.
This release includes the data files for the motif
extraction of cytochrome c .

The compilation procedures are described in the file INSTALL(or INSTALL.j).
