Title: PRAP: An automated de novo repeat finder pipeline for prokaryotic genomes

Conference ·
OSTI ID:985744

Repeat finding has been given little attention in most published complete prokaryotic genome annotations, and yet repeated sequences are ubiquitous in prokaryotic genomes. Without identifying the repetitive DNA in genomes, it not only makes systematical characterization the prokaryotic repeats impossible, it leaves the genome annotations incomplete, resulting in a barrier to genome analysis. We have developed a software package that can identify repeats in the whole prokaryotic genome from the DNA sequence.
