www.kegg.jp - Reconstruct Pathway is a KEGG PATHWAY mapping tool that assists genome and metagenome annotations. The input data is a single gene list (for a single organism) or multiple gene lists (for multiple organisms) annotated with KEGG Orthology (KO)...

Bacterial comparative genomics, driven by bioinformatics, continues to unravel the complexities of bacterial life. From combating antibiotic resistance to uncovering the secrets of microbial evolution, this interdisciplinary field holds immense...

Researchers developed GIPSy2, a computer tool that acts like a detective. It scans bacterial DNA and looks for unusual patterns that might show where a genomic island is hiding.

Work include (i) understanding the evolutionary relationships among different prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms; (ii) Understanding the cellular functions of these lineage-specific signature proteins as well as lineage-specific conserved inserts...
