| Geneious Pro 2.0 Has Arrived Geneious Pro features collaboration, sequence alignment editing, ClustalW and more. The original Geneious has also been enhanced and is free for academic use, forever. With our new API you can now plugin new modules to both Geneious versions yourself. Improvements to Geneious: - Revamped user interface - Improved search and agents - Public API (application programming interface for 3rd party plugins) - Support for additional commonly used import/export file formats Major enhancements to Geneious Pro include: - Ability for Geneious users to collaborate and share data - Manual sequence editing - Annotation editing - Sequence alignment via profile of Alignment and Sequence or two alignments - ClustalW - Open reading frame (ORF) finder - New sequence creation - Chromatogram visualization Chief Scientist Alexei Drummond says Geneious is establishing itself as the tool of choice for molecular biologists wanting access to advanced bioinformatics without having to themselves be a bioinformatician. Suddenly things that were hard are becoming incredibly easy. Geneious Pro lets scientists collaborate using P2P technology (the technology behind the telephony product Skype) Geneious' P2P allows scientists to share sequences, publications and other bioinformatics data as easily as using a telephony package. With the introduction of the Public API, the power to extend Geneious and Geneious Pro is now in your hands. New plugins can now be easily added to Geneious with a Java API. With this powerful new facility you can extend the Geneious platform to connect to proprietary databases, implement new file formats and connect to existing bioinformatics software. Bioinformatics is too big for any one company to do all alone. For people that prefer ClustalW, you can now run fast ClustalW alignments from within Geneious Pro. And with the power of Geneious, this has the unique benefit of remembering annotations if they existed on the original sequences. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
