| pubmed-article:9678589 | pubmed:abstractText | The completion of the entire 4.2-Mb genome sequence of the gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis has been a milestone for biological studies on this model organism. This paper describes bioinformatics work related to this joint European and Japanese project: methods and strategies for gene annotation and detection of sequencing errors, using an integrated cooperative computer environment (Imagene); construction of a specialized database for data management and a WWW server for data retrieval (SubtiList); DNA sequence analysis, yielding striking results on oligonucleotide bias, repeated sequences, and codon usage, all landmarks of evolutionary events shaping the B. subtilis genome. | lld:pubmed |
