"Error: no local variable "counter" was set." is not a number.

Main features:

  • Multiple sequence alignment using MUSCLE 3, MUSCLE 4 and KAlign;
  • HMM profiles build and search, based on the source of HMMER 2 and HMMER 3;
  • PCR Primers design using Primer 3;
  • Protein secondary structure prediction using GOR IV and PSIPRED;
  • Phylogenetic analysis with Phylip;
  • Search for restriction enzymes and integration with REBASE;
  • Extremely fast repeat finder;
  • Search for transcription factor binding sites using SITECON;
  • ORF finder;
  • Complete Smith-Waterman algorithm implementation (SSE2, CUDA);
  • Ability to run computational tasks on remote PCs


User Interface:

  • Visual and interactive genome browsing;
  • Chromatograms visualization;
  • 3D viewer for files in PDB and MMDB formats with anaglyph stereo mode support;
  • Multiple sequence alignment editor;
  • Easy to use workflow designer for custom computational workflows.


High performance computing in UGENE

  • Complete support of modern multicore processors and SSE instructions;
  • Out of the box support of modern GPUs using NVIDIA CUDA and ATI Stream;
  • Integrated solutions for Cell Broadband Engine;
  • Private solutions for supercomputers and distributed computing.

The tool uses Qt 4 as its GUI library.
