Corekaburra 0.1.1

A commandline bioinformatics tool to utilize syntenic information from genomes in the context of pan-genomes

Corekaburra looks at the gene synteny across genomes used to build a pan-genome. Using syntenic information Corekaburra identifies regions between core gene clusters. Regions are described in terms of their content of accessory gene clusters and distance between core genes. Information from neighboring core genes is further used to identify stretches of core gene clusters throughout the pan-genome that appear in all genomes given as input. Corekaburra is compatible with outputs from standard pan-genome pipelines: Roary and Panaroo.
