NAME
mira - The Genome and EST Sequence Assembly System
DESCRIPTION
The mira genome fragment assembler is a specialised assembler for sequencing projects classified as
'hard' due to high number of similar repeats. For expressed sequence tags (ESTs) transcripts, miraEST is
specialised on reconstructing pristine mRNA transcripts while detecting and classifying single nucleotide
polymorphisms (SNP) occurring in different variations thereof.
The assembler is routinely used for such various tasks as mutation detection in different cell types,
similarity analysis of transcripts between organisms, and pristine assembly of sequences from various
sources for oligo design in clinical microarray experiments.
The purpose of the mira executable is to assemble sequencing data.
