Description

platon website  

Platon detects plasmid-borne contigs within bacterial draft (meta) genomes assemblies. Therefore, Platon analyzes the distribution bias of protein-coding gene families among chromosomes and plasmids. This analysis is complemented by comprehensive contig characterizations followed by heuristic filters.

Environment Modules

Run module spider platon to find out what environment modules are available for this application.

System Variables

  • HPC_PLATON_DIR - installation directory
  • HPC_PLATON_DIR - executable directory
  • PLATON_DIR - reference directory
