资 源 简 介
This software is designed to search full genomes for occurrences of short degenerate sequences. Regular expressions are used as the search term because they suitable for describing degenerate sequences in a non-probabilistic way.
For increase efficiency, search results will be stored a database so subsequent searches for the same regular expression on the same genome can be immediately retrieved.
This software provides the option to filter and/or annotate the search results based on known or user uploaded genome features (ie. conservation or chip-seq peaks of protein binding locations). Conservation will be automatically annotated when available. For other features can be added by the user.
Search results can be viewed on a per-gene basis. This can be based on genes within a certain distance from the search result, and/or the nearest gene to the search result.
This program is implemented in a web-based interface, but is also be capable of command
