YACOP 2 – Gene Prediction for Prokaryotes

YACOP 2

:: DESCRIPTION

YACOP is a metatool for gene prediction in prokaryotic genomes. The predictions generated by the tool are based on the output of existing gene finding programs. In present YACOP supports the boolean combination of predictions from Critica 105b (with wublast2), Glimmer 2.02 or Glimmer 2.10 (with RBSfinder), Orpheus (with dps) and ZCurve1.0. The output can be adapted to different modes by customizing the enclosed ini-file, so that the tool can also be used for comparision and evaluation of different predictions.

EasyGene 1.2c – Prediction of Genes in Prokaryotes

EasyGene 1.2c

:: DESCRIPTION

EasyGene estimates the statistical significance of a predicted gene. The gene finder is based on a hidden Markov model (HMM) that is automatically estimated for a new genome. Using extensions of similarities in Swiss-Prot, a high quality training set of genes is automatically extracted from the genome and used to estimate the HMM. Putative genes are then scored with the HMM, and based on score and length of an ORF, the statistical significance is calculated. The measure of statistical significance for an ORF is the expected number of ORFs in one megabase of random sequence at the same significance level or better, where the random sequence has the same statistics as the genome in the sense of a third order Markov chain.
