The Apollo genome annotation editor, which is a stand-alone Java application, allows users to view, create, and edit genomic annotations in a graphical environment. Apollo has been used for years by many genome projects. WebApollo is a new project that aims to provide similar functionality in a client-server web-based environment.
Our overall goal is to develop a lightweight Web 2.0 infrastructure that will offer easy-to-use tools for collaborative genome annotation. This includes the design and implementation of:
- a web-browser-based version of Apollo built on top of JBrowse
- full support for two-way client-server exchange of genome annotations (DAS2)
- an annotation tracking system designed to support collaborative genome research projects
The WebApollo project is a collaboration between Suzanna Lewis's group at LBNL (the Berkeley Bioinformatics Open-source Projects group, or BBOP), the JBrowse project in Ian Holmes' group at Berkeley, and Chris Elsik's group at Georgetown.
This work is supported by an NIH grant (Lewis R01 GM080203).
