Stop that transcription! In bacteria, transcription termination can occur by the Rho-independent and Rho-dependent mechanisms. When annotating new phage genomes, the CPT has traditionally focused on identifying likely Rho-independent signals using the TransTermHP tool. Now, we have expanded the ability to look for rho-dependent transcription termination signals in CPT Galaxy with the tool published byLearn More…
Software
Highlighting community workflows
The CPT Galaxy hosts various standard tools and workflows for phage annotation. Below, we highlight a few workflows built and shared among our users for their specific analysis needs. Maybe they will be useful to you as well. * Structural workflow for existing organism Workflow name: Modified PAP Structural Workflow v.2020.06 for updating existing organismPurpose:Learn More…
New tool: ProphET for prophage prediction
Looking for prophages in bacterial genomes? We added the prophage estimation tool ProphET described by Reis-Cunha et al. to CPT Galaxy. The tool uses similarity to a database of prophage genes and calculations of density and boundaries to make its determination. To use ProphET in Galaxy, users need to supply a matched bacterial genome inLearn More…
