Title: MASiVE: Mapping and Analysis of Sirevirus Elements in plant genome sequences. Author: Darzentas N, Bousios A, Apostolidou V, Tsaftaris AS. Journal: Bioinformatics; 2010 Oct 01; 26(19):2452-4. PubMed ID: 20696734. Abstract: UNLABELLED: We present MASiVE, an expertly built tool for the large-scale, yet sensitive and highly accurate, discovery, preliminary analysis and insertion age estimation of intact Sirevirus LTR-retrotransposons in plant genomic sequences. Validation was based on the recently available and annotated large maize chromosome one. Results show a considerable improvement in the annotation of Sireviruses, and support our approach as an important addition to the bioinformatics toolbox of plant biologists. AVAILABILITY: PERL source code and essential files are available online at http://bat.ina.certh.gr/tools/masive/. The freely available Vmatch, LTRharvest, Wise2, and MAFFT algorithms are required.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
