How can you use “genscan” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
However, GENSCAN also shows greater sensitivity than Genie, identifying some real genes that Genie fails to find.
CG6645 , with 5 exons in Release 2 (Figure 4), appears to have been based on a Genie prediction (note that GENSCAN had predicted two separate genes).
The outer (gray) panel displays computational evidence to support these annotations, such as gene predictions generated by programs such as GenScan [ 44] and Genie [ 45], and other biological data, such as ESTs aligned using the program Sim4 [ 2] and protein homologies revealed by BLASTX [ 1].
However, both Genie and GENSCAN gene models were often wrong in detail, when compared to cDNA sequence alignments for three main reasons: first, exon mis-associations: the programs placed exons from one gene with the exons of a neighboring or nested gene; second, erroneous splice site calls: the donor and acceptor sites were slightly misplaced; or third, missed mini- and micro-exons: small ORFs were not identified [ 20, 66].
Incorporating their methods (threading GENSCAN predictions to look for structural homology) into our computational approach may uncover additional missed genes.
