<p>In <a href="Molecular_biology" title="Molecular biology">molecular biology</a>, <b>reading frames</b> are defined as spans of <a href="DNA" title="DNA">DNA</a> sequence between the start and stop <a href="Codon" class="mw-redirect" title="Codon">codons</a>. Usually, this is considered within a studied region of a <a href="Prokaryote" title="Prokaryote">prokaryotic</a> DNA sequence, where only one of the <a href="#Six-frame_translation">six possible reading frames</a> will be "open" (the "reading", however, refers to the RNA produced by <a href="Transcription_(biology)" title="Transcription (biology)">transcription</a> of the DNA and its subsequent interaction with the <a href="Ribosome" title="Ribosome">ribosome</a> in <a href="Translation_(biology)" title="Translation (biology)">translation</a>).

The <a href="Transcription_terminator" class="mw-redirect" title="Transcription terminator">transcription termination</a> site is located after the ORF, beyond the translation stop codon.

<p>One common use of open reading frames (ORFs) is as one piece of evidence to assist in <a href="Gene_prediction" title="Gene prediction">gene prediction</a>.

<p>The ORF Finder (Open Reading Frame Finder)<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> is a graphical analysis tool which finds all open reading frames of a selectable minimum size in a user's sequence or in a sequence already in the database. This tool identifies all open reading frames using the standard or alternative genetic codes. The deduced amino acid sequence can be saved in various formats and searched against the sequence database using the <a href="BLAST_(biotechnology)" title="BLAST (biotechnology)">basic local alignment search tool</a> (BLAST) server. The ORF Finder should be helpful in preparing complete and accurate sequence submissions. It is also packaged with the Sequin sequence submission software (sequence analyser).

<p>ORF Investigator<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> is a program which not only gives information about the coding and non coding sequences but also can perform pairwise global alignment of different gene/DNA regions sequences. The tool efficiently finds the ORFs for corresponding amino acid sequences and converts them into their single letter amino acid code, and provides their locations in the sequence. The pairwise global alignment between the sequences makes it convenient to detect the different mutations, including <a href="Single_nucleotide_polymorphism" class="mw-redirect" title="Single nucleotide polymorphism">single nucleotide polymorphism</a>. <a href="Needleman%E2%80%93Wunsch_algorithm" title="Needleman–Wunsch algorithm">Needleman–Wunsch algorithms</a> are used for the gene alignment.

<p>OrfPredictor<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> is a web server designed for identifying protein-coding regions in expressed sequence tag (EST)-derived sequences. For query sequences with a hit in BLASTX, the program predicts the coding regions based on the translation reading frames identified in BLASTX alignments, otherwise, it predicts the most probable coding region based on the intrinsic signals of the query sequences. The output is the predicted peptide sequences in the <a href="FASTA_format" title="FASTA format">FASTA format</a>, and a definition line that includes the query ID, the translation reading frame and the nucleotide positions where the coding region begins and ends. OrfPredictor facilitates the annotation of EST-derived sequences, particularly, for large-scale EST projects.
</p><p>ORF Predictor uses a combination of the two different ORF definitions mentioned above. It searches stretches starting with a start codon and ending at a stop codon. As an additional criterion, it searches for a stop codon in the 5' <a href="Untranslated_region" title="Untranslated region">untranslated region</a> (UTR or NTR, <i>nontranslated region</i><sup id="cite_ref-Carrington_1990_19-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Carrington_1990-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>).
