Flip is a Unix C program used to find/translate orfs. Flip translates and reformats DNA sequences. The produced output files can be used by other programs such as BBLAST (Pierre Rioux, 1994, a batch version of BLAST (Altschul et al, J. Mol.Biol. 215, 403-410), FASTA (W. Pearson, Methods enzymol. 183, 63-68), NIP (Queen & Korn, Nucl. Acids Res., 12, 581-599) for further analysis.
