gene prediction

Gene Prediction/Genome Annotation

We are continually working on the development of geneid, an ab initio gene prediction program, and SGP2 a comparative gene finder. We currently have more than forty-five parameter files for gene prediction in a wide range of species spanning all Kingdoms of life.

New ab initio gene predictor geneid parameter files available

We have recently added four new species-specific parameter files to our ab initio gene predictor (geneid) home page.

These four new parameter files allow for gene predictions in Bombus terrestris, Bombus impatiens (two insects of the order Hymenoptera) , Plasmodium vivax (protozoal parasite which is one of the causative agents of malaria) and Phaseolus vulgaris (common bean).

We currently have fifty four parameter files for our ab initio gene prediction program geneid which allow us to predict genes in a wide range of species spanning all four "classical Kingdoms" (Animal, Plantae, Fungi and Protist).

NEW GENEID PARAMETER FILES AVAILABLE

We have recently added three new species-specific parameter files to our ab initio gene predictor (geneid) home page.

Investigation of sequence patterns in the genome responsible for functionality

Research in our group focuses on the investigation of the signals involved in gene specification in genomic sequences (promoter elements, splice sites, translation initiation sites, ...). We are interested both in the mechanism of their recognition and processing, and in their evolution. In addition, but related to this basic component of our research, our group is also involved in the development of software for gene prediction and annotation in genomic sequences. Some of our current projects are:
