| GeneMark | |
| A family of gene prediction programs developed at Georgia Institute of Technology , Atlanta, Georgia, USA. |
| What's New: A new joint publication: "NCBI prokaryotic genome annotation pipeline" | Supported by NIH  |
| Gene Prediction in Bacteria, Archaea, Metagenomes and Metatranscriptomes | |
 |
Novel genomic sequences can be analyzed either by the self-training program GeneMarkS (sequences longer than 50 kb) or by GeneMark.hmm with Heuristic models. For many species pre-trained model parameters are ready and available through the GeneMark.hmm page. Metagenomic sequences can be analyzed by MetaGeneMark , the program optimized for speed. |
| Gene Prediction in Eukaryotes | |
| Novel genomes can be analyzed by the program GeneMark-ES utilizing unsupervised training. Note that GeneMark-ES has a special mode for analyzing fungal genomes. Recently, we have developed a semi-supervised version of GeneMark-ES, called GeneMark-ET that uses RNA-Seq reads to improve training. For several species pre-trained model parameters are ready and available through the GeneMark.hmm page. |
| Gene Prediction in Transcripts | |
 |
Sets of assembled eukaryotic transcripts can be analyzed by the modified GeneMarkS algorithm (the set should be large enough to permit self-training). A single transcript can be analyzed by a special version of GeneMark.hmm with Heuristic models. A new advanced algorithm GeneMarkS-T was developed recently (manuscript sent to publisher); The GeneMarkS-T software (beta version) is available for download . |
| Gene Prediction in Viruses, Phages and Plasmids | |
 |
Sequences of viruses, phages or plasmids can be analyzed either by the GeneMark.hmm with Heuristic models (if the sequence is shorter than 50 kb) or by the self-training program GeneMarkS. |
