NuST

NuST (Nucleoid Survey tools) is a software tool designed to identify and visualize spatial clusters of contiguous genes targeted by specific DNA-binding proteins or sensitive to nucleoid perturbations in bacteria. It allows for the analysis of gene aggregation at different scales of observation, and the discovery of correlations between different sources of data, such as expression, binding, or genomic data, and genome organization. It can be used on datasets in the form of gene lists or can make use of an internal database that collects data from published studies.
