A common feature between these assays is that they sequence large amounts of DNA fragments that reflect, for example, a biological system's repertoire of RNA molecules (RNA-Seq ) or the DNA or RNA interaction regions of nucleotide binding molecules (ChIP-Seq, HITS-CLIP ). Latest update: Replaced SVG Factory technique with reference to this post about printing to SVG.High-throughput sequencing of DNA fragments is used in a range of quantitative assays.

You will also find a similar feature called FontWorks in Open Office.) It is an incredibly powerful and flexible feature with a friendly user interface (did I really just say that about a Microsoft product?) and the best part is that it generates vector output. ( Microsoft’s WordArt feature is also included in Publisher, Excel and Powerpoint, as well as MS Works versions earlier than 8.5.
