TargetScan 7.2 – Prediction of microRNA Targets

TargetScan 7.2

:: DESCRIPTION

TargetScan predicts biological targets of miRNAs by searching for the presence of conserved 8mer and 7mer sites that match the seed region of each miRNA (ref. 1). As an option, nonconserved sites are also predicted.`

TARGeT 2.10 – Tree Analysis of Related Genes and Transposons

TARGeT 2.10

:: DESCRIPTION

TARGeT (Tree Analysis of Related Genes and Transposons) uses either a DNA or amino acid ‘seed’ query to: (i) automatically identify and retrieve gene family homologs from a genomic database, (ii) characterize gene structure and (iii) perform phylogenetic analysis. Due to its high speed, TARGeT is also able to characterize very large gene families, including transposable elements (TEs).
