Comparative Bioinformatics
Technologies developed by our Comparative Bioinformatics team
bGAS (bacterial Genome Annotation System)
Our bGAS is an automatic annotation pipeline for users to annotate their own genome sequence data. This system uses many different gene prediction programs to predict the genes and present the integrated information. bGAS also has a graphic presentation system to show the annotated data to users and to help users to visualize the annotated result and to manage it easily.
bGAS is composed of the following four main parts and bGAS will be available soon:
- Bacterial gene prediction
- Bacterial gene annotation
- Bacterial gene ontology
- Bacterial operon/regulon prediction
- Bacterial pathway reconstruction
iCAP (integrated Comparative Analysis Platform)
Our iCAP is currently composed of various Genome Comparison Tools (CAGO, CAMP, CICP, and CARO) developed by GELab. iCAP is an on-going project. Currently, the following bioinformatics tools are available for use. CARO and other tools will also be available soon.
- CAGO - Comparative analysis of genome organization
- CAMP - Comparative analysis of metabolic pathways
- CICP - Comparative identification of conservation profiles
- CARO - Comparative analysis of replication origin
Digital Life
Digital Life contains information of various genome comparison results. Currently the following categories are available.
- Digital Animals
- Digital Plants
- Digital Fungi
- Digital Organelles
- Digital Bacteria
- Digital Viruses
