The effectiveness of deep learning methods can be largely attributed to the automated extraction of relevant features from raw data. In the field of functional genomics, this generally concerns the automatic selection of relevant nucleotide motifs fr...
CyanoPATH is a database that curates and analyzes the common genomic functional repertoire for cyanobacteria harmful algal blooms (CyanoHABs) in eutrophic waters. Based on the literature of empirical studies and genome/protein databases, it summarize...
Virulence factors (VFs) enable pathogens to infect their hosts. A wealth of individual, disease-focused studies has identified a wide variety of VFs, and the growing mass of bacterial genome sequence data provides an opportunity for computational met...
CRISPR-Cas are adaptive immune systems that degrade foreign genetic elements in archaea and bacteria. In carrying out their immune functions, CRISPR-Cas systems heavily rely on RNA components. These CRISPR (cr) RNAs are repeat-spacer units that are p...

Escherichia coli is a species of bacteria that can be present in a wide variety of mammalian hosts and potentially soil environments. E. coli has an open genome and can show considerable diversity in gene content between isolates. It is a reasonable ...

Small open reading frames (ORFs) have been systematically disregarded by automatic genome annotation. The difficulty in finding patterns in tiny sequences is the main reason that makes small ORFs to be overlooked by computational procedures. However,...
With the ever-expanding number of available sequences from bacterial genomes, and the expectation that this data type will be the primary one generated from both diagnostic and research laboratories for the foreseeable future, then there is both an o...
Many of the sequenced bacterial and archaeal genomes encode regions of viral provenance. Yet, not all of these regions encode bona fide viruses. Gene transfer agents (GTAs) are thought to be former viruses that are now maintained in genomes of some b...
MOTIVATION: Various bacterial pathogens can deliver their secreted substrates also called effectors through Type III secretion systems (T3SSs) into host cells and cause diseases. Since T3SS secreted effectors (T3SEs) play important roles in pathogen-...
