چکیده

SUMMARY AnnBuilder is an R package for assembling genomic annotation data. The system currently provides parsers to process annotation data from LocusLink, Gene Ontology Consortium, and Human Gene Project and can be extended to new data sources via user defined parsers. AnnBuilder differs from other existing systems in that it provides users with unlimited ability to assemble data from user selected sources. The products of AnnBuilder are files in XML format that can be easily used by different systems. AVAILABILITY (http://www.bioconductor.org). Open source.

RASTtk: A modular and extensible implementation of the RAST algorithm for building custom annotation pipelines and annotating batches of genomes

The RAST (Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology) annotation engine was built in 2008 to annotate bacterial and archaeal genomes. It works by offering a standard software pipeline for identifying genomic features (i.e., protein-encoding genes and RNA) and annotating their functions. Recently, in order to make RAST a more useful research tool and to keep pace with advancements in bioinforma...
