TL;DR: ORCAE as discussed by the authors is an online annotation tool for gene annotation, where the quality of the presented annotation is the responsibility of the whole community and several automatic checks have been put in place that encompass all existing knowledge on the gene structure and functions.

TL;DR: It is found that loss-of-function mutations in ald (Rv2780), encoding L-alanine dehydrogenase, were associated with unexplained drug resistance, and drug susceptibility testing established that ald loss of function conferred resistance to D-cycloserine, and susceptibility to the drug was partially restored by complementation of ald.

TL;DR: The power of long‐read sequencing is demonstrated by providing a high‐quality reference assembly and annotation of CEN.PK113‐7D and places a caveat on assumed genome stability of microorganisms.

TL;DR: GenomeView is a stand-alone genome browser specifically designed to visualize and manipulate a multitude of genomics data, unique in its capability to interactively handle huge data sets consisting of tens of aligned genomes, thousands of annotation features and millions of mapped short reads both as viewer and editor.

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative analysis of the 9.27 Mb R. opacus PD630 genome was performed and the results of the catabolic screen, phylogenetic analysis of TAGs cycle enzymes, and metabolic product characterizations were integrated into a working model of prokaryotic oleaginy.
