seqret (EBI)

seqret (EBI) provides sequence format conversion and supports a wide array of sequence analyses via the EMBL-EBI Job Dispatcher framework, enabling programmatic access through RESTful and SOAP APIs and integration with UniProt, InterPro, ENA, and Ensembl Genomes.

Key Features:

• Sequence format conversion: Performs sequence format conversion as part of a suite for sequence processing.
• Programmatic APIs: Exposes RESTful and SOAP APIs for automated submission and retrieval of analyses.
• Job management: Manages job submission, monitoring, and retrieval for sequence analyses.
• Integration with EMBL-EBI resources: Integrates with UniProt, InterPro, ENA, and Ensembl Genomes to access reference data.
• Use of external bioinformatics applications: Leverages popular bioinformatics applications to execute diverse sequence analysis tasks.
• Support for diverse analyses: Supports a wide array of sequence analyses within the Job Dispatcher framework.

Scientific Applications:

• Sequence analysis workflows: Enables diverse sequence analysis workflows using integrated bioinformatics applications and reference databases.
• Genomics and related research: Facilitates genomic analyses and related bioinformatics research through integration with UniProt, InterPro, ENA, and Ensembl Genomes.
• Data interoperability: Supports sequence format conversion to facilitate data exchange and interoperability among tools and databases.

Methodology:

Accepts job submission, executes analyses via underlying bioinformatics applications, manages job monitoring and retrieval, and provides programmatic access via RESTful and SOAP APIs while integrating with UniProt, InterPro, ENA, and Ensembl Genomes.
