annotation

Examples of annotation in the following topics:

• Annotating Genomes

  • Once a genome is sequenced, it needs to be annotated to make sense of it.
  • DNA annotation or genome annotation is the process of identifying the locations of genes and all of the coding regions in a genome and determining what those genes do .
  • Automatic annotation tools try to perform all of this by computer analysis, as opposed to manual annotation (a.k.a. curation) which involves human expertise.
  • The basic level of annotation is using BLAST for finding similarities, and then annotating genomes based on that.
  • The additional information allows manual annotators to deconvolute discrepancies between genes that are given the same annotation.

• Maintaining an Annotated Bibliography

  • An annotated bibliography is a list of all your sources, including full citation information and notes on how you will use the sources.
  • If you keep one while you research, the annotated bibliography will function as a useful guide.
  • If you find an annotated bibliography attached to one of the sources you are using, you can look at it to find other possible resources.
  • The first part of each entry in an annotated bibliography is the source's full citation.
  • A good annotation has three parts, in addition to the complete bibliographic information for the source:

• Bioinformatic Analyses and Gene Distributions

  • annotate genes and gene products and assimilate and disseminate annotation data

• Introduction to Version Control

  • The core of version control is change management: identifying each discrete change made to the project's files, annotating each change with metadata like the change's date and author, and then replaying these facts to whoever asks, in whatever way they ask.

• Microbial Growth at Low or High pH

  • A pH scale with annotated examples of chemicals at each integer pH value

• No Conversations in the Bug Tracker

  • Usually it starts off innocently enough: someone annotates an ticket with, say, a proposed solution, or a partial patch.
  • Someone else sees this, realizes there are problems with the solution, and attaches another annotation pointing out the problems.

• Molecular Geometries

• Late Egyptian Art

  • Except for the small-scale greywacke (sandstone) statue in the Metropolitan Museum, which shows him standing before the image of Horus as a falcon, no other annotated portraits of the pharaoh are known.
  • This is believed to be the only surviving annotated sculpture of the last pharaoh of the Thirtieth Dynasty.

• Nucleic Acid Sequencing and rRNA Analysis

  • Principal limits are the lack of real universal primers; DNA amplification biases and reference database selection impact the annotation of reads.

• Interactive Whiteboards

  • In other cases, online whiteboards interact with online shared annotation and drawing environments such as interactive vector based graphical websites.
