We describe a computer program designed to facilitate the pattern matching analysis of homologies between DNA sequences. It takes advantage of a two-dimensional plot in order to simplify the evaluation of significant structures inherited in the sequences. The program can be divided into three parts, i) algorithm for search of homologies, ii) twodimensional graphic display of the result, iii) further graphic treatment to enhance significant structures.The power of the graphic display is presented by the following application of the program. We have conducted a search for direct repeats in the mouse immunoglobulin K-chain genes. Both the five J DNA sequences and other shorter repeats were found. We also found a longer stretch of homology that could indicate the presence of duplicated DNA in the J4, J5 region.
