RAPSearch: a fast protein similarity search tool for short reads
Abstract
Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is producing enormous corpuses of short DNA reads, affecting emerging fields like metagenomics. Protein similarity search--a key step to achieve annotation of protein-coding genes in these short reads, and identification of their biological functions--faces daunting challenges because of the very sizes of the short read datasets. We developed a fast protein similarity search tool RAPSearch that utilizes a reduced...
