摘要: The RAST (Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology) annotation engine was built in 2008 to annotate bacterial and archaeal genomes. It works by offering a standard software pipeline for identifying genomic features (i.e., protein-encoding genes RNA) annotating their functions. Recently, order make more useful research tool keep pace with advancements bioinformatics, it has become desirable build version of that is both customizable extensible. In this paper, we describe the kit (RASTtk), modular enables researchers custom pipelines. RASTtk offers choice as well ability add an job. also accommodates batch submission genomes customize protocols submissions. This first major restructuring since its inception.
