Gene Prediction - Bioinformatics Softwares / Tools.


Gene prediction / Gene finding softwares:

After sequencing a genome of a organism the next and the most important step is to predict the genes in the genome. Homology Search method (Ex:BLAST)is a very simple and straight forward method to predict genes.
  • GLIMMER - To identify coding regions in microbial DNA.
  • GeneScan - To predict complete gene structures, including exons, introns, promoter and poly-adenylation signals, in genomic sequences
  • GeneMark - For finding genes in bacterial DNA sequences.
  • WebGene
    - Web interface for several coding region recognition programs.
