coordinatestosequence

coordinatestosequence extracts nucleotide sequences (DNA or RNA) from user-specified genomic coordinates for downstream genomic, metagenomic, and phylogenetic analyses.


Key Features:

  • Sequence Extraction: Retrieves precise DNA or RNA sequences corresponding to user-defined genomic coordinates.
  • Galaxy Integration: Executes sequence retrieval within the Galaxy@Pasteur environment using Galaxy's execution framework.
  • API Interoperability: Communicates programmatically with Galaxy via its API or the Bioblend library.

Scientific Applications:

  • Metagenomics: Enables extraction of specific regions from complex metagenomic assemblies for targeted analyses.
  • Phylogenetics: Provides precise sequence retrieval needed for alignment and evolutionary tree construction.
  • General Genomic Research: Supports diverse genomic studies that require accurate subsequence data for downstream analyses.

Methodology:

Uses Galaxy as the execution engine on the Institut Pasteur cluster and communicates with Galaxy through its API or via the Bioblend library.
