The Mauve Contig Mover (MCM) can be used to order a draft genome relative to a related reference genome. The functionality of this software module has been described in Rissman et al. 2009, a publication in Bioinformatics. The Mauve Contig Mover can ease a comparative study between draft and reference sequences by ordering draft contigs according to the reference genome. In many cases, true rearrangements in the draft relative to the reference can be identified. The quality of the reorder is limited by the distance between the sequences, as indicated by the amount of shared gene content among the two organisms. A more distant reference will usually yield fewer ordered draft genome contigs, and may also induce erroneous placements of draft contigs. In addition to ordering contigs, MCM also orient them in the most likely orientation, and, if annotated sequence features are specified in an input file (e.g. with GenBank format input for the draft), MCM will output adjusted coordinates ranges for the features. |
