Hello.I'm using Blast2Go with a free Basic Account but I think the data-c ompatibility of Blast2Go and Geneious is insufficient. This week, I upgraded Geneious from R7 to R9 to use the Blast2Go plugin and noticed that this plugin is subject to fees. How can I pass annotation data from Geneious to Blast2Go software?Or, could you improve the Blast2Go plugin to be able to use the free Basic Account? Get to grips with the functionality of Geneious Prime interactively. Our tutorials have all been created using real data from real research by real researchers.
Abstract Advancements in high-throughput nucleotide sequencing techniques have brought with them state-of-the-art bioinformatics programs and software packages. Given the importance of molecular sequence data in contemporary life science research, these software suites are becoming an essential component of many labs and classrooms, and as such are frequently designed for non-computer specialists and marketed as one-stop bioinformatics toolkits. Although beautifully designed and powerful, user-friendly bioinformatics packages can be expensive and, as more arrive on the market each year, it can be difficult for researchers, teachers and students to choose the right software for their needs, especially if they do not have a bioinformatics background. This review highlights some of the currently available and most popular commercial bioinformatics packages, discussing their prices, usability, features and suitability for teaching.
Although several commercial bioinformatics programs are arguably overpriced and overhyped, many are well designed, sophisticated and, in my opinion, worth the investment. If you are just beginning your foray into molecular sequence analysis or an experienced genomicist, I encourage you to explore proprietary software bundles. They have the potential to streamline your research, increase your productivity, energize your classroom and, if anything, add a bit of zest to the often dry detached world of bioinformatics. ,,, INTRODUCTION Most mornings I wake up to a slew of spam email from biotech companies offering unbeatable bargains on next-generation sequencing (NGS). Yesterday, for example, Beckman Coulter kindly offered to ‘take the stress out of sequencing’ for only a few thousand dollars.
Illumina recently provided me with ‘a glimpse into the future of genomics’, just by clicking on their buyer’s guide. And Macrogen, a South Korean sequencing conglomerate, dared me to race the HiSeq ‘Xpressway to the $1000 genome’.
