Description-en: Microbial (bacterial and archaeal) gene finding program
Prodigal (Prokaryotic Dynamic Programming Genefinding Algorithm) is a
microbial (bacterial and archaeal) gene finding program developed at
Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Tennessee.
Key features of Prodigal include:
.
Speed: Prodigal is an extremely fast gene recognition tool
(written in very vanilla C). It can analyze an entire microbial genome
in 30 seconds or less.
.
Accuracy: Prodigal is a highly accurate gene finder.
It correctly locates the 3' end of every gene in the experimentally verified
Ecogene data set (except those containing introns).
It possesses a very sophisticated ribosomal binding site scoring system that
enables it to locate the translation initiation site with great accuracy
(96% of the 5' ends in the Ecogene data set are located correctly).
.
Specificity: Prodigal's false positive rate compares favorably with other
gene identification programs, and usually falls under 5%.
.
GC-Content Indifferent: Prodigal performs well even in high GC genomes,
with over a 90% perfect match (5'+3') to the Pseudomonas aeruginosa curated
annotations.
.
Metagenomic Version: Prodigal can run in metagenomic mode and analyze
sequences even when the organism is unknown.
.
Ease of Use: Prodigal can be run in one step on a single genomic sequence
or on a draft genome containing many sequences. It does not need to be
supplied with any knowledge of the organism, as it learns all the properties
it needs to on its own.
