DNA Subway

DNA Subway makes high-level genome analysis broadly available to students and educators and provides easy access to the types of data and informatics tools that drive modern biology. Using the intuitive metaphor of a subway map, DNA Subway organizes research-grade bioinformatics analysis tools into logical workflows and presents them in an appealing interface.

By "riding" different lines users can:

  • Predict and annotate genes in up to 150,000 base pairs of DNA sequence (Red Line).
  • Prospect entire plant genomes for related genes and sequences (Yellow Line).
  • Determine sequence relationships, view phylogenetic trees and analyze "DNA barcodes" (Blue Line).

Take a ride on DNA Subway, take a look at the manual, or attend a training workshop on how to teach genomics using DNA Subway.
