bioFOX Description

bioFOX is a bioinformatics tool for the Mozilla based browsers. Code bioFOX aims at implementing various bioinformatics tools as an extension on the Firefox browser. Analysis of your favorite gene(s) usually require(s) retrieving it from a database like NCBI or Swiss-Prot and then performing one or more tasks including but not limited to: · Translation of a nucleotide sequence · Blast search (For eg. blastn, blastp etc.) of the desired nucleotide/protein sequence. · Calculation of properties (like PI, charge, molecular weight, AT/GC content etc.) of a protein/nucleotide sequence. · Conversion between formats (Genbank, Fasta, Swiss-Prot etc.) · Prediction of sequence for sub-cellular localization (PREDOTAR, TargetP, pSORT etc) Each of these tasks requires at least the following 4 steps: · Visiting one of the sequence database websites, · searching for the gene using its name or accession ID (ACC ID), · copying the gene sequence · and importing it to other bioinformatics websites for further analysis. bioFOX makes analysis of desired sequences easier. For example, selecting a sequence and submitting it directly to a particular website of interest. Requirements: · Firefox: 1.0
