wossoperation

wossoperation provides integration and extension capabilities within the EMBOSS suite to enable development and deployment of bioinformatics applications for molecular biology analyses such as sequence analysis, structural biology, and genomics.


Key Features:

  • Integration with third-party software: Integrates external bioinformatics applications into the EMBOSS framework to reuse and combine existing analytical tools.
  • Database configuration: Supports configuration and use of sequence and reference databases within the EMBOSS environment.
  • Extensible C programming libraries: Built on extensible C libraries that support development and customization of bioinformatics applications.
  • Wrapping and porting applications: Supports incorporation and porting of third-party applications into EMBOSS to extend analytical capabilities.

Scientific Applications:

  • Sequence analysis: Integrates sequence analysis tools and workflows within the EMBOSS framework.
  • Structural biology studies: Facilitates incorporation of structural biology tools into analyses via wrapping and integration.
  • Genomics research: Supports genomics-scale analyses by integrating external tools and configuring relevant databases within EMBOSS.

Methodology:

Leverages the EMBOSS command-line interface and extensible C programming libraries, and employs wrapping/porting of third-party applications and database configuration to develop and deploy bioinformatics applications.
