Definitely-- this is a good example of services that are needed to round out expected capabilities for the system. We should enumerate as many of these as possible asap. Adam On Thu, Jan 3, 2013 at 8:10 PM, Christopher Henry <[email protected]>wrote:
So I'm wondering what kinds of blast services exist for KBase at the moment.
Do we offer services that enable a user to blast a particular sequence against all genomes in our database?
Specifically, I'm interested in a service that lets me "TBlastN" a series of candidate protein sequences against a specified set of KBase genomes. The idea is I think these proteins might be in these genomes, but they're not being spotted in part because of an error or omission in the gene calls.
Do we have something that does this? If not, it seems like a good service to create. Seems like KBase should support all forms of blast if possible. If it's missing and we think we want to create it, is there an existing service in KBase that this would fit nicely into? Perhaps the genome annotation service?
