GeneMark  
  A family of gene prediction programs developed at Georgia Institute of Technology , Atlanta, Georgia, USA.

Gene Prediction in Bacteria, Archaea, Metagenomes and Metatranscriptomes
circular genome Novel prokaryotic genomic sequences can be analyzed by the self-training software tool GeneMarkS-2 (sequences longer than 50 Kb). For some species pre-trained model parameters are ready and available through the GeneMark.hmm. Metagenomic sequences and individual short sequences (sequences < 50 kb) can be analyzed by MetaGeneMark.
Gene Prediction in Eukaryotes
mouse Novel eukaryotic genomes can be analyzed by the self-training GeneMark-ES. The fungal mode of GeneMark-ES accounts for fungal-specific intron organization. GeneMark-ET integrates into GeneMark-ES information on mapped RNA-Seq reads. GeneMark-EP+ integrates into GeneMark-ES information on cross-species protein sequences. GeneMark-ETP integrates into GeneMark-ES both types of external information, RNA reads and cross-species proteins.
Gene Prediction in Transcripts
gel Sets of eukaryotic transcripts can be analyzed by GeneMarkS-T.
Gene Prediction in Viruses, Phages and Plasmids
virus Sequences of viruses, phages or plasmids can be analyzed either by GeneMarkS (sequences > 50 Kb) or MetaGeneMark (sequences < 50 kb)

All the software tools mentioned here are available for download.

The GeneMark software is a part of genome annotation pipelines at NIH NCBI (for prokaryotes) and DOE JGI (for eukaryotes) as well as others:
  • QUAST: assessment of genome assembly quality
    - uses GeneMarkS
  • MetAMOS: a tool for metagenome assembly and analysis
    - uses MetaGeneMark
Eukaryotic genome annotation pipelines:
  • MAKER2: uses GeneMark-ES along with SNAP and AUGUSTUS.
  • BRAKER1: integrates RNA-Seq reads
    -- uses GeneMark-ET and AUGUSTUS
  • BRAKER2: integrates known proteins
    -- uses GeneMark-EP+ and AUGUSTUS
  • BRAKER3: integrates RNA-seq reads and known proteins
    -- uses GeneMark-EP+ and AUGUSTUS
