Geobacter Comparative Genomics Tool(GCGT)

Geobacter Comparative Genomics Tool (GCGT) has been built for pairwise comparative analysis of Geobacter genomes. Geobacter Comparative Genomics Tool (GCGT) has been created using BLASTALL program. Currently, this tool consists of all 7 Geobacter species in FASTA format. They are Geobacter sulfurreducens PCA, Geobacter bemidjiensis Bem, Geobacter sp. FRC-32, Geobacter lovleyi SZ, Geobacter sp. M21, Geobacter metallireducens GS-15, and Geobacter uraniireducens Rf4. Geobacter species is one which is known to be involved in electricity production, bioremediation and various environmental friendly activities. These species have the ability to transfer electrons directly to electrode producing electricity or to contaminants thus oxidizing it to harmless compounds. Thus, to study further about this organism this tool has been built. This tool is part of in house tool MCGT tool which has 1205 organisms in total. This tool uses Perl script and runs on an Apache web server. At a given E-value the sequence is compared based on the automated task run on FORMATDB and BLASTALL programs. The output is given in the form of tables showing homologous and non-homologous sequences between the compared genomes. http://mcgt.bioinfo.au-kbc.org.in/GCGT/
