The UCSC site hosts a set of genome analysis tools, including a full-featured GUI interface for mining the information in the browser database, a FASTA format sequence alignment tool BLAT [9] that is also useful for simply finding sequences in the massive sequence (human genome = 3.23 billion bases [Gb]) of any of the featured genomes.
The first printout of the human reference genome presented as a series of books, displayed at the Wellcome Collection, London. A reference genome (also known as a reference assembly) is a digital nucleic acid sequence database, assembled by scientists as a representative example of the set of genes in one idealized individual organism of a species.
Since the completion of the Human Genome Project advances in human population genetics and comparative genomics enabled further insight into genetic diversity. [7] The understanding about structural variations (insertions/deletions (), copy number variations (CNV), retroelements), single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and natural selection were being solidified.
Bowtie is a software package commonly used for sequence alignment and sequence analysis in bioinformatics. [3] The source code for the package is distributed freely and compiled binaries are available for Linux, macOS and Windows platforms.
FASTA is a DNA and protein sequence alignment software package first described by David J. Lipman and William R. Pearson in 1985. [1] Its legacy is the FASTA format which is now ubiquitous in bioinformatics .
Indexes the genome with periodic seeds to quickly find alignments with full sensitivity up to four mismatches. It can map Illumina and SOLiD reads. Unlike most mapping programs, speed increases for longer read lengths. Yes Free, GPL [49] PRIMEX Indexes the genome with a k-mer lookup table with full sensitivity up to an adjustable number of ...
It can be used directly or through mVISTA, Genome VISTA, or VISTA Browser. A database of tissue-specific human enhancers is available through VISTA Enhancer Browser. [1] GenomeVISTA allows the comparison of sequences with whole genome assemblies. It will automatically find the ortholog, obtain the alignment and VISTA plot.
UniProt is a freely accessible database of protein sequence and functional information, many entries being derived from genome sequencing projects.It contains a large amount of information about the biological function of proteins derived from the research literature.
