Example sentences for: genscan
How can you use “genscan” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In the annotation of the masked scaffold, Genscan predicted a single gene model that includes all but one rolled coding exon, and protein similarity evidence supported the exon that Genscan missed.
Finally, alignment of protein sequence to genomic DNA cannot predict untranslated regions (UTRs), and the leading ab initio gene prediction programs (Genscan [ 11], GlimmerM [ 12], Genemark.HMM [ 13]) have great difficulty predicting UTRs; most of them predict only the coding portion of a transcript.
As reported previously [ 3, 20], Genie appears to predict fewer false positives, perhaps because it has been trained on Drosophila sequences, whereas GENSCAN has only been trained on vertebrate datasets [ 21].
This pipeline aligns Drosophila ESTs, cDNA sequences, and other sequences in GenBank using sim4 [ 53], performs DNA and protein sequence similarity searches of the GenBank and SwissProt/TrEMBL databases using BLASTX and TBLASTX, and executes the gene-prediction algorithms Genie [ 68] and Genscan [ 69].
In the annotation of the unmasked WGS3 scaffold, transposable elements within rolled introns interfered with Genscan so that a very poor rolled gene prediction was generated, and protein similarity results of transposable elements complicated the evidence.
