What is OmicsBox?

OmicsBox is a bioinformatics software solution which allows to get from reads to insights with ease. Use OmicsBox for the NGS data analysis of genomes, transcriptomics and metagenomes. OmicsBox is structured in Modules. Depending on your needs you can combine different modules required for your data analysis.

What is blast to go?

Blast2GO allows you to create your own Blast database from a single or multi-species FASTA file using the option “Make Blast Database”. Once the database is formatted it can be used to run a local Blast.

What is eggNOG Mapper?

eggNOG-mapper is a tool for functional annotation of large sets of sequences based on fast orthology assignments using precomputed clusters and phylogenies from the eggNOG database. Orthology assignment is ideally suited for functional inference.

What is BLAST and how is it used?

BLAST is a computer algorithm that is available for use online at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website, as well as many other sites. BLAST can rapidly align and compare a query DNA sequence with a database of sequences, which makes it a critical tool in ongoing genomic research.

What is omics in biology?

The word omics refers to a field of study in biological sciences that ends with -omics, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, or metabolomics. The ending -ome is used to address the objects of study of such fields, such as the genome, proteome, transcriptome, or metabolome, respectively.

How do you cite Blast2GO?

In case you run functional annotation pipeline on your data (Mapping and Annotation), then the citation is as it used to be, Blast2GO. This is for the Blast2GO methodology: Götz S., Garcia-Gomez JM., Terol J., Williams TD., Nagaraj SH., Nueda MJ., Robles M., Talon M., Dopazo J. and Conesa A.

What are clusters of orthologous groups?

Database Description The database of Clusters of Orthologous Groups of proteins (COGs) is an attempt on phylogenetic classification of the proteins encoded in complete genomes. Each COGs includes proteins that are inferred to be orthologs (direct evolutionary counterparts).

What is the BLAST website?

How does a BLAST work?

How does BLAST work? BLAST identifies homologous sequences using a heuristic method which initially finds short matches between two sequences; thus, the method does not take the entire sequence space into account. After initial match, BLAST attempts to start local alignments from these initial matches.

What is bioinformatics and omics?

Bioinformatics is “the science of managing and analyzing biological data using advanced computing techniques” (HGP, 2003). Bioinformatics tools include computational tools that mine information from large databases of biological data. These tools are most commonly used to analyze large sets of genomics data.

What is the Blast2GO tool?

Blast2GO is designed for experimentalists. An intuitive interface, the many graphical parameters and the detailed users manual makes the use of the tool possible from the first try. High-throughput and interactive. Blast2GO can annotate thousand of sequences, in multiple projects. Users can follow and modify the annotation process at any stage.

What are the system requirements for Blast2GO?

Blast2GO is available for Mac (10.9+), Windows (7+) and Linux systems (Ubuntu 14.14+, Debian 8+, RedHat Enterprise Linux 7). The Linux systems require > gtk2-2.24.

What’s new in Blast2GO 5?

This video shows new RNA-Seq features incorporated in Blast2GO 5: FastQ Preprocessing and Quality Assessment, de novo Transcriptome Assembly, Gene Expression Quantification, and Differential Expression Analysis.
