LASERGENE 17.6 RELEASE NOTES
Lasergene 17.6 is now available to download.
This release includes:
- Significant usability improvements for protein analysis in Protean 3D
- New NovaFold AI-Multimer workflow using AlphaFold-Multimer method
- Powerful new functionality for sequence alignments and phylogenetic analysis in MegAlign Pro
- Updates for RNA-Seq and templated genome alignments in Lasergene Genomics
- Bug fixes for SeqBuilder Pro and SeqMan Ultra
Updates for sequence alignments in MegAlign Pro include:
- A new gene homology alignment algorithm enables users to identify and compare subsets of homologous genes in bacterial genomes or eukaryotic chromosomes with ease
- RAxML-NG is now available for fast and accurate Maximum Likelihood phylogenetic inference and bootstrapping calculations
- Gap editing allows adding, removing, and shuffling gaps in the alignment
- Translate nucleic sequences or subsequences into a protein alignment, with a single click
- Use a translation track to guide sequence trimming before an alignment, or for gap editing afterward
Improvements for protein analysis in Protean 3D include:
- Updated rendering engine that allows Protean 3D to run natively on macOS and provides more photo-realistic images
- New NovaFold AI-Multimer workflow for predicting the structure of multimeric assemblies using the AlphaFold-Multimer method
- WYSIWYG (What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get) selection in the Structure view enables precise selection directly on the structure
- Custom label creation for atoms, residues, and other structural components
- The ability to export 3D models for use in other applications
Updates for NGS workflows in Lasergene Genomics include:
- Auto-generation of PCA plots and Volcano plots for differential gene expression using EdgeR or DESeq2 for RNA-Seq alignments.
- Updated human genome template packages for whole exome/genome sequencing and variant analysis
- Several bug fixes in SeqMan Ultra
