KEGG_Extractor: An Effective Extraction Tool for KEGG Orthologs.

ABSTRACT: The KEGG Orthology (KO) database is a widely used molecular function reference database which can be used to conduct functional annotation of most microorganisms. At present, there are many KEGG tools based on the KO entries for annotating functional orthologs. However, determining how to efficiently extract and sort the annotation results of KEGG still hinders the subsequent genome analysis. There is a lack of effective measures used to quickly extract and classify the gene sequences and species information of the KEGG annotations. Here, we present a supporting tool: KEGG_Extractor for species-specific genes extraction and classification, which can output the results through an iterative keyword matching algorithm. It can not only extract and classify the amino acid sequences, but also th
