Download
You can try to run MARNA on your local machine. I have written a preliminary
version which is executable on my machine and hopefully on your machine as well. I use a 2.8 GHz
Pentium IV machine, kernel version 2.6. OS: Suse Linux 9.2.
If you have a similar machine and if you have installed T-Coffee, the RNA Vienna Package and RNAshapes
then the chances are great that MARNA runs fully on your local machine.
- Install tcoffee such that it can be run globally from any directory
- Install Vienna RNA package (RNAfold/RNAsubopt)
and/or RNAshapes
such that it can be run globally from any directory
- Download MARNA-100729.tar.gz.
- Unpack it with 'tar -xzf MARNA-100729.tar.gz'
- Change the unpacked source directory with 'cd MARNA'
- Check install notes and further information in file 'INSTALL.readme' (e.g. with 'less INSTALL.readme')
- Compile with 'make'
Then test it with './marna.pl test.efasta'.
Reports are welcome !
