Origin of DNA replicationAlgorithm

* Search genome sequence for DnaA-binding sites - TTAT[CA]CACA - One mismatch? - Use MATCHES-OF-PATTERN

* Sort sites by coordinate - Use SORT

* Add context - Loop through sites - JOIN site information with CONTEXT-OF

* Look for clusters - ???

Apply to all phage genomes

* Make problem tangible

Morals of the Story

* Experiment
