annot8r is a tool for the annotation of protein or nucleotide sequences from non model organisms with GO terms, EC numbers and KEGG pathways. The annotation is based on BLAST similarity searches against annotated subsets of EMBL UniProt from which sequences with non-informative entries have been removed. GO, EC and KEGG annotations are saved as flat files and in a relational postgreSQL database to allow for more sophisticated searches within the results.

For further details please see the User guide (available as PDF or Word .doc; Includes frequently asked questions and changes made to the script)

VERSION 1.1.1 corrects database creation errors arising in v1.1 due to a change in the format of files delivered from EBI.

see also annot8r_physprop, a tool for adding physical property annotations to peptides.
