Klappentext From individual tools to genome analysis, this book provides an overview of annotation strategies and toolkits currently in use. Presenting a combination of principles and practice, the authors elucidate database search engines and HTML-based annotation systems for specialists in computational biology and bioinformatics who use genome annotation in their work. They also introduce web service-based annotation pipelines. The text includes a CD-ROM with MAGPIE and Bluejay, genome annotation systems and viewers that are used in thousands of laboratories around the world. Zusammenfassung This thorough overview explores automated genome analysis and annotation from its origins to the challenges of next-generation sequencing data analysis. It explains how current analysis strategies were developed, including sequencing strategies, statistical models, and early annotation systems.
