Orthology relations can be used to transfer annotations from one gene (or protein) to another. Hence, detecting orthology relations has become an important task in the post-genomic era. Various genomic events, such as duplication and horizontal gene transfer, can cause erroneous assignment of orthology relations. In closely-related species, gene neighborhood information can be used to resolve many ambiguities in orthology inference. Here we present OrthoGNC, a software for accurately predicting pairwise orthology relations based on gene neighborhood conservation. Analyses on simulated and real data reveal the high accuracy of OrthoGNC. In addition to orthology detection, OrthoGNC can be employed to investigate the conservation of genomic context among potential orthologs detected by other methods. OrthoGNC is freely available online at http://bs.ipm.ir/softwares/orthognc and http://tinyurl.com/orthoGNC.

(i) can be used for HGT detection in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes,

(ii) can report a statistical P value for each gene to indicate how likely it is to be horizontally transferred, and

(iii) is fully automated (requires minimal human intervention), as well as very easy to install and run.

11/3/2019: V 0.61, Improve graphical visualization (thanks to reviewers). Interactive networks and much more.

5/20/2019: V.0.60, Annotation database updated to Ensembl 96. New bacterial and fungal genomes based on STRING-db! Just paste your gene list to get enriched GO terms and othe pathways for over 315 plant and animal species, based on annotation from Ensembl (Release 96), Ensembl plants (R. 43) and Ensembl Metazoa (R. 43). An additional 2031 genomes (including bacteria and fungi) are annotated based on STRING-db (v.10). In addition, it also produces KEGG pathway diagrams with your genes highlighted, hierarchical clustering trees and networks summarizing overlapping terms/pathways, protein-protein interaction networks, gene characterristics plots, and enriched promoter motifs.

It efficiently constructs gene networks from expression data. It allows the user to use ten different network construction methods (such as partial correlation-, likelihood-, Bayesian- and mutual information-based methods) and integrates the resulting networks from multiple methods. Hub gene information, if available, can be incorporated to enhance performance.
