SeqMan Genome Assembler (SMGA) - Early Release

Software for Next Generation sequence assembly of Illumina, 454 Life Sciences and Sanger data integrating with Lasergene Sequence Analysis software for additional analysis and visualization capabilities.
The Early Release version is designed to meet many of the immediate needs of molecular biologists wishing to use these technologies.
Compatible with Windows® XP X 64 and Mac OS X 10.4.

SeqMan Genome Assembler (SMGA) is a command-line application that uses a unique algorithm to assemble fragment data sequenced using Illumina, 454 and Sanger technologies on a desktop computer. The software can be used in a wide range of genomic assembly and re-sequencing types of Next Generation Sequencing projects.

The strength of SMGA comes from its ability to permit a user to assemble multiple sequencing platforms and to be able to work with a commonly known sequence analysis software suite, Lasergene, for the pre- and post assembly analysis.

 

Key Features of SMGA include:

  • » Desktop computer (Win or Mac) assembly for Illumina, 454 and Sanger platforms
  • » Integrated with popular Lasergene sequence analysis software to permit a wide range of sequence analyses and visualizations
  • » Easy to set up and use
  • » Full technical support by DNASTAR.

SeqMan Genome Assembler is designed to work closely with the SeqMan Pro assembly module in Lasergene. The advantage is that it minimizes that time required to learn how to efficiently use the software and it permits users to work with Features in Lasergene they have learned how to use.

SMGA requires SeqMan Pro to function. A separate license is required for the use of SMGA and Lasergene.
