orthAgogue: an agile tool for the rapid prediction of orthology relations
See on Scoop.it – Virology and Bioinformatics from Virology.ca
Motivation: The comparison of genes and gene products across species depends on high-quality tools to determine the relationships between gene or protein sequences from various species. Although some excellent applications are available and widely used, their performance leaves room for improvement.
Results: We developed orthAgogue: a multithreaded C application for high-speed estimation of homology relations in massive datasets, operated via a flexible and easy command-line interface.
