Pedant-Pro™ Sequence Analysis Suite

The Pedant-Pro™ Sequence Analysis Suite is a genome analysis package for comprehensive analysis of DNA and protein sequences. The software annotates individual sequences and entire genomes automatically, provides an easy-to-use interface for exploring genomic data and allows users to manually refine data for additional detail. The Pedant-Pro databases constitute a powerful and concise sequence, gene and protein repository - an ideal foundation for efficient research and development (R&D) processes. Cross-genome comparison (including positional linkage and phylogenetic profiling) extends the Pedant-Pro suite with tools for work in the industrial biotechnology sector.

Benefits for researchers:
Process large amounts of sequences with multi-method analysis in minimum time
Produce comparable results over numerous analyses
Simplify strain improvement using genome and pathway comparison
Find easily potential diagnostic and drug targets matching required properties
Add your own data: manually annotate gene functions, modify gene predictions, include experimental data and integrate proprietary databases
Visualize gene and protein properties using an easy-to-use graphical interface
Take advantage of expert knowledge and experience: use an optimized multi-method system without evaluating and managing the individual bioinformatic algorithms
Process entire method sets or subsets according to current requirements (e.g., perform exhaustive genome analysis or design your own workflow with protein domain analysis only)

Benefits for companies:
Enable optimal adaptation to the requirements of unique R&D processes through a dynamic workflow architecture: use standard workflows defined by Biomax scientists or specially design workflows for your projects
Save time and money in the sequence analysis process: use the high-throughput, industrial-scale Pedant-Pro grid-processing engine to analyze a maximum number of genomes, ESTs or other sequences in a minimum of time
Use the highly efficient EST pre-processing pipeline, streamlining the EST analysis process
Work with exactly the genomes you need: have your company or project-specific cross-genome comparison data set generated as a perfect basis for microbial analyses in industrial biotechnology.
Create a company-wide gene index with manual annotation functionalities for distributed systems, allowing all scientists of a project to access the active genomes easily
Save training time and money by providing an easy-to-use graphical user interface which allows efficient work for the bioinformatician as well as for the laboratory biologist from the first minute on

The Pedant-Pro Sequence Analysis Suite has been used at Biomax to annotate over 450 genomes in the PEDANT Genome Database.
