G-language genome analysis environment (G-language GAE) contains more than 100 programs that focus on the analysis of bacterial genomes, including programs for the identification of binding sites by means of information theory, analysis of nucleotide composition bias and the distribution of particular oligonucleotides, calculation of codon bias and prediction of expression levels, and visualization of genomic information. We have provided a collection of web services for these programs by utilizing REST and SOAP technologies. The REST interface, available at http://rest.g-language.org/, provides access to all 145 functions of the G-language GAE. These functions can be accessed from other online resources. All analysis functions are represented by unique universal resource identifiers. Users can access the functions directly via the corresponding universe resource locators (URLs), and biological web sites can readily embed the functions by simply linking to these URLs. The SOAP services, available at http://www.g-language.org/wiki/soap/, provide language-independent programmatic access to 77 analysis programs. The SOAP service Web Services Definition Language file can be readily loaded into graphical clients such as the Taverna workbench to integrate the programs with other services and workflows.
G 语言基因组分析环境（G-language GAE）包含 100 多个程序，这些程序专注于细菌基因组的分析，包括基于信息论的结合位点识别程序、核苷酸组成偏差和特定寡核苷酸分布分析程序、密码子偏爱度计算和表达水平预测程序以及基因组信息可视化程序。我们利用 REST 和 SOAP 技术为这些程序提供了一组 Web 服务。REST 接口可在 http://rest.g-language.org/ 访问，提供了对 G-language GAE 的 145 个功能的访问。这些功能可以从其他在线资源访问。所有分析功能都由唯一的通用资源标识符表示。用户可以直接通过相应的通用资源定位器（URL）访问这些功能，生物网站可以通过简单地链接到这些 URL 来轻松嵌入这些功能。SOAP 服务可在 http://www.g-language.org/wiki/soap/ 访问，提供了对 77 个分析程序的独立于语言的编程访问。SOAP 服务 Web 服务定义语言文件可以轻松加载到图形客户端（如 Taverna 工作台）中，以便将这些程序与其他服务和工作流程集成。
