The avalanche of genomic sequences generated in the post-genomic age requires efficient computational methods for rapidly and accurately identifying biological features from sequence information. Towards this goal, we developed a freely available and open-source package, called PseKNC-General (the general form of pseudo k-tuple nucleotide composition), that allows for fast and accurate computation of all the widely used nucleotide structural and physicochemical properties of both DNA and RNA sequences. PseKNC-General can generate several modes of pseudo nucleotide compositions, including conventional k-tuple nucleotide compositions, Moreau-Broto autocorrelation coefficient, Moran autocorrelation coefficient, Geary autocorrelation coefficient, Type I PseKNC and Type II PseKNC. In every mode, >100 physicochemical properties are available for choosing. Moreover, it is flexible enough to allow the users to calculate PseKNC with user-defined properties. The package can be run on Linux, Mac and Windows systems and also provides a graphical user interface.
The package is freely available at: http://lin.uestc.edu.cn/server/pseknc.
后基因组时代产生的大量基因组序列需要高效的计算方法,以便从序列信息中快速准确地识别生物学特征。为了实现这一目标,我们开发了一个免费的开源软件包,称为PseKNC-General(伪k元核苷酸组成的通用形式),它可以快速准确地计算DNA和RNA序列中所有广泛使用的核苷酸结构和物理化学性质。PseKNC-General可以生成多种伪核苷酸组成模式,包括传统的k元核苷酸组成、莫罗-布罗托自相关系数、莫兰自相关系数、吉尔里自相关系数、I型PseKNC和II型PseKNC。在每种模式下,有超过100种物理化学性质可供选择。此外,它足够灵活,允许用户使用自定义性质来计算PseKNC。该软件包可以在Linux、Mac和Windows系统上运行,并且还提供了图形用户界面。
