MICheck -- a web tool for fast checking of syntactic annotations of bacterial genomes
What you can do:
Perform rapid verification of sets of annotated genes and frameshifts in previously published bacterial genomes.
Highlights:
- MICheck (MIcrobial genome Checker) enables rapid verification of sets of annotated genes and frameshifts in previously published bacterial genomes.
- The web interface allows users easily to investigate the MICheck results, i.e. inaccurate or missed gene annotations: a graphical representation is drawn, in which the genomic context of a unique coding DNA sequence annotation or a predicted frameshift is given, using information on the coding potential (curves) and annotation of the neighboring genes.
- This tool can be seen as a preliminary step before the functional re-annotation step to check quickly for missing or wrongly annotated genes.
