GeneMark
GeneMark is a computer program used to identify genes in DNA sequences. It analyzes the patterns and characteristics of the DNA to predict where genes are located, helping scientists understand the genetic makeup of organisms. By using statistical models and algorithms, GeneMark can distinguish between coding regions (where genes are found) and non-coding regions. This tool is particularly useful in genomics, aiding researchers in annotating new genomes, studying evolutionary relationships, and enhancing our knowledge of biology. Essentially, GeneMark helps unlock the information encoded in an organism's DNA.
