AnnotaPipeline: An integrated tool to annotate eukaryotic proteins using multi-omics data
Assignment of gene function has been a crucial, laborious, and time-consuming step in genomics. Due to a variety of sequencing platforms that generates increasing amounts of data, manual annotation is no longer feasible. Thus, the need for an integrated,

Metatranscriptomes from diverse microbial communities: assessment of data reduction techniques for rigorous annotation [PDF]
Background Metatranscriptome sequence data can contain highly redundant sequences from diverse populations of microbes and so data reduction techniques are often applied before taxonomic and functional annotation.

DFLAT: functional annotation for human development [PDF]
Recent increases in genomic studies of the developing human fetus and neonate have led to a need for widespread characterization of the functional roles of genes at different developmental stages. The Gene Ontology (GO), a valuable and widely-used resource for characterizing gene function, offers perhaps the most suitable functional annotation system ...

Annotation extension through protein family annotation coherence metrics
Protein functional annotation consists in associating proteins with textual descriptors elucidating their biological roles. The bulk of annotation is done via automated procedures that ultimately rely on annotation transfer.

htsint: a Python library for sequencing pipelines that combines data through gene set generation [PDF]
Background: Sequencing technologies provide a wealth of details in terms of genes, expression, splice variants, polymorphisms, and other features. A standard for sequencing analysis pipelines is to put genomic or transcriptomic features into a context of

Functional domain annotation by structural similarity
Abstract Traditional automated in silico functional annotation uses tools like Pfam that rely on sequence similarities for domain annotation. However, structural conservation often exceeds sequence conservation, suggesting an untapped potential for improved annotation through structural similarity. This approach was previously overlooked
