IMAS Description

A free system for the discovery of knowledge in genomic information IMAS (The Interactive Multigenomic Analysis System) is a free and open source visual analytic system for the discovery of knowledge in genomic information. IMAS enables genomic scientists to rapidly analyze a set of microbial genomic sequences using tools such as Glimmer, Blast, ClustalW, Primer3 and TransTerm and to visualize the output of these tools in a unified genomic framework.IMAS provides the user with a 1-dimensional zooming graphical interface to a genomic sequence. The user can interact with the sequence to analyze for the presence of coding regions, which can be further analyzed by sequence alignment with local and remote databases using Blast. Blast results are displayed in a unified graphical framework that allows the user to filter and to select Blast hits of interest.Selected Blast hits can be then multialigned using ClustalW, and these multialignments are displayed using the common graphical framework. Multialignments and pairwise alignments can be annotated by the user for future reference, and HTML reports can be generated showing these findings.
