Casboundary v1.0.1 – Automated Definition of integral CRISPR/Cas Cassettes

Casboundary v1.0.1

:: DESCRIPTION

Casboundary is the first method able to automatically define CRISPR cassette boundaries. In addition, it contains a Cas type predictive model used to assign each gene located in the region defined by a cassette’s boundaries a Cas label from a set of pre-defined Cas types. Furthermore, the proposed method can detect potentially new cas genes and decompose a cassette into its modules.
