DarkHorse: a method for genome-wide prediction of horizontal gene transfer
A new approach to rapid, genome-wide identification and ranking of horizontal transfer candidate proteins is presented. The method is quantitative, reproducible, and computationally undemanding. It can be combined with genomic signature and/or phylogenetic tree-building procedures to improve accu...Tags: DarkHorse, method, genome-wide, prediction, horizontal, gene, transfer, HGT

Alien_Hunter : prediction of putative Horizontal Gene Transfer (HGT) events
Alien_hunter is an application for the prediction of putative Horizontal Gene Transfer (HGT) events with the implementation of Interpolated Variable Order Motifs (IVOMs). An IVOM approach exploits compositional biases using variable order motif distributions and captures more reliably the local ...Tags: prediction, putative, Horizontal, Gene, Transfer, HGT, events, Alien, Hunter, Alien_hunter

Bioinformatics tools to detect horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in genomes
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT), the “non-sexual movement of genetic material between two organisms” , is relatively common in prokaryotes and single-celled eukaryotes, but a number of factors combine to make it far rarer in multicellular eukaryotes. In order for a eukaryotic spec...Tags: Tools, detect, horizontal, gene, transfer, HGT, genomes

swgis v2.0 : a seqword genomic island sniffer
swgis v2.0 is the modified version of the seqword genomic island sniffer. this version is specifically optimized for predicting genomic islands in eukaryotic genomes. swgis v2.0 was tested on several eukaryotic species of different lineages. all identified genomic islands were deposited in t...Tags: swgis, modified, version, seqword, genomic, island, sniffer, HGT, rna, genome

TwinBLAST: When Two Is Better than One
TwinBLAST is a web-based tool for viewing 2 BLAST reports simultaneouslyside-by-side. It uses ExtJS (www.sencha.com/products/extjs/) to provide 2independently scrollable panels. BioPerl (www.bioperl.org) is used to indexraw BLAST reports and Bio::Graphics is used to draw pictograms of the BLASThi...Tags: TwinBLAST, blast, perl, HGT, LGT
