SCRMshaw: Supervised cis-regulatory module prediction for insect genomes.

ABSTRACT: As the number of sequenced insect genomes continues to grow, there is a pressing need for rapid and accurate annotation of their regulatory component. SCRMshaw is a computational tool designed to predict cis-regulatory modules ("enhancers") in the genomes of various insect species. A key advantage of SCRMshaw is its accessibility. It requires minimal resources-just a genome sequence and training data from known Drosophila regulatory sequences, which are readily available for download. Even users with modest computational skills can run SCRMshaw on a desktop computer for basic applications, although a high-performance computing cluster is recommended for optimal results. SCRMshaw can be tailored to specific needs: users can employ a single set of training data to predict enhancers associate
