Use Database | Auto-Annotate Sequence to annotate prokaryotic genomes
Read more: Use Database | Auto-Annotate Sequence to annotate prokaryotic genomesThe continuing advances in Next Generation Sequencing have made it relatively low cost to sequence prokaryotic genomes. Many scientists are embarking on large projects to sequence multiple related genomes. These might be clinical isolates of the same species exhibiting different pathogenetic properties, environmental isolates from different sites, or a study over time of the changes…

RNASeq Expression Analysis with MacVector and Assembler
Read more: RNASeq Expression Analysis with MacVector and AssemblerIf you have the Assembler module, MacVector can align millions of NGS reads from RNASeq experiments against large genomes and generate a coverage table displaying the relative expression levels of every gene in a genome. The key to this functionality is that you must have a reference genome with genes annotated as CDS or gene…
