How install Blast2GO Linux?

Open a terminal in the folder where you have downloaded the installer. An installation wizard should open. Just follow the instructions on the screen. Note: change X_X_XX by the corresponding version.

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 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.

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 a functional annotation?

Functional annotation is defined as the process of collecting information about and describing a gene’s biological identity—its various aliases, molecular function, biological role(s), subcellular location, and its expression domains within the plant.

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 are omic techniques?

At their core, Omics techniques aim to measure the total composition of a specific biochemical group: (meta)genomics for DNAs, transcriptomics for RNAs, proteomics for proteins, metabolomics for small hydrophilic compounds, and lipidomics for small lipophilic compounds.

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).
