A standalone version of IsoFinder for the computational prediction of isochores in genome sequences Bernaola-Galván, Pedro Carpena, Pedro Oliver, José Luis Bioinformatics IsoFinder Isochores Genomics DNA sequences Chromosome maps Availability: Free download from the isoFinder project site: http://isofinder.sourceforge.net/ Web server: http://bioinfo2.ugr.es/IsoFinder Isochores are long genome segments relatively homogeneous in G+C. A heuristic algorithm based on entropic segmentation has been developed by our group, and a web server implementing all the required components is available. However, a researcher may want to perform batch processing of many sequences simultaneously in its local machine, instead of analyzing them on one by one basis through the web. To this end, standalone versions are required. We report here the implementation of two standalone programs, able to predict isochores at the sequence level: 1) a command-line version (IsoFinder) for Windows and Linux systems; and 2) a user-friendly version (IsoFinderWin) running under Windows. 2014-10-08T08:53:33Z 2014-10-08T08:53:33Z 2008 info:eu-repo/semantics/preprint arXiv:0806.1292v1 http://hdl.handle.net/10481/33381 eng http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 License
