OligoCounter 0.64 – Count Overrepresented 8-14bp Oligonucleotides in DNA Sequences

OligoCounter 0.64

:: DESCRIPTION

OligoCounter is a Java command line program which counts overrepresented 8-14bp oligonucleotides in DNA sequences. These oligos can be useful in visualising small genomes on a global basis (see figure below), investigating repeats at certain regions, and for attributing short reads (for example from metagenomics) to a sequenced genome.

OligoViz : allows direct visualisation of OligoCounter data

OligoWords : generates 4mer data for JCircleGraph (use the perl script to extract 4mer data from a fasta file).

JCircleGraph : visualisation of 4mer and OligoCounter data in attractive genome atlases (requires 4mer files from OligoWords!).
