Our overall goal is to develop a lightweight Web 2.0 infrastructure that will offer easy-to-use tools for collaborative genome annotation that allows users to view, create, and edit genomic annotations in a graphical environment. This includes the design and implementation of:
- a web-browser-based version of Apollo built on top of JBrowse
- full support for two-way client-server exchange of genome annotations
- an annotation tracking system designed to support collaborative genome research projects
This work is supported by an NIH grant (Lewis R01 GM080203). | screenshot = | public_server = | dl = | dl_url = http://icebox.lbl.gov/webapollo/releases/ | dl_src =
