  • ShadowCaster: a hybrid approach for the detection of horizontal gene transfer events in prokaryotes

    ShadowCaster implements an evolutionary model to calculate Bayesian likelihoods for each ‘alien genes’ with an unusual sequence composition according to the host genome background to detect HGT events in prokaryotes. https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4425/11/7/756/htm https://shadowcaster.r...

  • Flanker

    Flanker, a Python package which performs alignment-free clustering of gene flanking sequences in a consistent format, allowing investigation of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) without prior knowledge of their structure. Flanker can be flexibly parameterised to finetune outputs by charact...
