SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATED ANNOTATION AND SCREENING OF BIOLOGICAL SEQUENCES

摘要

The present disclosure describes software tools for effective biosecurity based on community knowledge and participation. Annotation tools described herein provide assistance to the synthetic biology community to track emerging science on the link between individual proteins and negative outcomes. Screening tools described herein enables the community to broaden both interest and effective practice of biosecurity so that practitioners and biological sequence or construct providers are empowered to evaluate the safety of order requests rather than waiting until synthesis or even expression. In addition, screening tools described herein provide for screening of polynucleotides across the same or multiple orders for sequences associated with harmful biological sequences from a reference database.
