EMBOSS is "The European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite". EMBOSS is a free Open Source software analysis package specially developed for the needs of the molecular biology (e.g. EMBnet) user community. The software automatically copes with data in a variety of formats and even allows transparent retrieval of sequence data from the web. Also, as extensive libraries are provided with the package, it is a platform to allow other scientists to develop and release software in true open source spirit. EMBOSS also integrates a range of currently available packages and tools for sequence analysis into a seamless whole. EMBOSS breaks the historical trend towards commercial software packages.

Available versions

  • 6.4.0 - EL5.
  • 6.5.7 - EL6.

Running the application using modules

To use emboss with the environment modules system at HPC the following commands are available:

Get module information for emboss:

$module spider emboss

Load the default application module:

$module load emboss

The modulefile for this software adds the directory with executable files to the shell execution PATH and sets the following environment variables:

  • HPC_EMBOSS_DIR - directory where emboss is located.

How To Run

EMBOSS is available both at the command line for use in the batch jobs and through the Galaxy Framework for Biocomputing.
