Australian Fgenesh++ Service
FGENESH++ is now open to all users on Galaxy Australia, without the need to request access. We no longer offer Fgenesh++ as a separate service.
Please note: You can now access FGENESH++ directly via Galaxy Australia.
Fgenesh++ is a bioinformatics pipeline for automatic prediction of genes in eukaryotic genomes. It can produce fully automated genome annotations of a quality similar to manual annotation, and is extremely fast compared to some other automated genome annotation pipelines.
It works by: (a) performing ab initio gene prediction; (b) running predicted amino acid sequences of all potential exons through a non redundant protein sequence database; and (c) running a second round of gene prediction with higher scores assigned to exons homologous to known proteins.
Fgenesh++ is installed on computational resources provided by Galaxy Australia, and is supported by Bioplatforms Australia, which is enabled by NCRIS. Access is managed by Australian BioCommons.
