Abstract
Systems, methods, software and computer-usable media for annotating biomolecule-related data are disclosed. In certain exemplified embodiments, the biomolecules can be nucleic acids and the data can be sequence-related data. In various embodiments, systems can include one or more public or private biological attributes (e.g., annotation information databases, data storage devices and systems, etc.) sources, one or more genomic features data sources (e.g., genomic variant tools, genomic variant databases, genomic variant data storage devices and systems, etc.), a computing device (e.g., workstation, server, personal computer, mobile device, etc.) hosting an annotations module and/or a reporting module, and a client terminal.
Claims21
A system for annotating genomic features, comprising:
- a client device;
- a first data source configured to store genomic features data associated with one or more genomic sequence positions;
- a second data source configured to store biological attributes data;
- an annotations module communicatively connected with the client device, the first data source and the second data source, comprising:
- an annotation component configured to:
- receive genomic features data from the first data source,
- search the second data source to identify relevant biological attributes associated with the genomic features data, and
- annotate the genomic features data with the identified biological attributes, and
- an analytics component configured to parse the annotated genomic features data to ascertain statistical trends within the annotated genomic features data;
- and
- a reporting module communicatively connected to the client device and the annotations module, the reporting module configured to generate a report summarizing the annotated genomic features data and the ascertained statistical trends.
An annotations module for annotating genomic features, comprising:
- an annotation component configured to:
- receive genomic features data from a first data source,
- search a second data source to identify relevant biological attributes associated with the genomic features data, and
- annotate the genomic features data with the identified biological attributes;
- and
- an analytics component configured to parse the annotated genomic features data to ascertain statistical trends within the annotated genomic features data.
A computer implemented method for annotating genomic features, comprising:
- receiving genomic features data associated with one or more genomic sequence positions;
- searching one or more data sources to identify biological attributes associated with each of the genomic features based on a set of criteria;
- and
- annotating the genomic features data with the identified biological attributes.
