pygr


Scalable bioinformatics interfaces in Python

Welcome to pygr!

Pygr is open source software designed to make it easy to do powerful sequence and comparative genomics analyses, even with extremely large multi-genome data sets. pygr includes:

  • Code for interacting with sequence databases, search methods such as BLAST, repeat-masking, megablast, etc.;
  • Querying and working with sequence annotation databases and sequence alignment datasets;
  • A data namespace for accessing a given resource with seamless data relationship management.
  • Easy data sharing that includes transparent access over network protocols.
  • High performance graph representation and query of interval-based data.

pygr is available under the New BSD license, written in Python, and actively used and developed by several groups.
