GENOVA: A
rapid genome vizualization and functional genomics
software. Onl J Bioinform.,
10 (2): 201-217, 2009. As genomic sequences become publicly
available, software to analyze, categorize and manipulate genome information
allows to better exploit this information as well as, to plan experiments in
functional genomics. GENOVA is a workbench for genome annotation, simulation of
genetic experiments and classification of different genes. It supports
functional genomic and annotation efforts (e.g. vaccinia virus, Staphylococci, Blattabacteria). Outputs are
interactively illustrated on a genome canvas with a graphical user interface,
as well as exported as high-quality image files or function reports and
listings. Advantages are demonstrated for a complex strain selection and design
scenario where ultimately Staphylococcus
aureus COL provided the optimal non pathogenic strain and RN1HG the model
pathogenic strain. Software and supplementary material are accessible at
http://genova.bioapps.biozentrum.uni-wuerzburg.de.
