MOSGA

MOSGA performs modular genome annotation and prepares NCBI-submission-ready outputs for large eukaryotic genomes.


Key Features:

  • Integrated genome browser: Aggregates annotation results from multiple tools and enables their analysis.
  • NCBI submission-ready output: Formats annotations for direct submission to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).
  • Customizable Snakemake backend: Implements a portable, customizable, and extendible Snakemake-based workflow for tailoring annotation pipelines.
  • Annotation integration: Integrates annotations generated by various bioinformatics tools into a cohesive set of results.

Scientific Applications:

  • Eukaryotic genome annotation: Generates comprehensive annotations for large eukaryotic genomes.
  • Data submission workflows: Produces outputs formatted for NCBI submission to facilitate data sharing.

Methodology:

Modular genome annotation approach that integrates different bioinformatics tools into a cohesive, Snakemake-based framework to aggregate annotations and produce NCBI-formatted outputs.
