Apollo}}

Introduction

The Apollo genome annotation editor, which is a Java application, allows users to view, create, and edit genomic annotations in a graphical environment. WebApollo is a new project that aims to provide similar functionality in a client-server web-based environment.

Our overall goal is to develop a lightweight Web 2.0 infrastructure that will offer easy-to-use tools for collaborative genome annotation. This includes the design and implementation of:

  1. a web browser-based version of Apollo built on top of JBrowse
  2. full support for two-way client-server exchange of genome annotations (DAS2)
  3. an annotation tracking system designed to support collaborative genome research projects

The WebApollo project is a collaboration between Suzanna Lewis's group at LBNL (the Berkeley Bioinformatics Open-source Projects group, or BBOP) and Chris Elsik's group at Georgetown.
