Chapter 6.3, Problem 1MQ
Summary Introduction
Before analyzing or after the genome sequence is fragmented, the existing genome must be assembled. The assembly of the genome involves eliminating the overlaps and placing the fragments in the accurate arrangement. The genome assemble must be annotated and it can be helpful in determining the more functional regions and genes. The initial step in the annotation is to identify for the open reading frame (ORFs).
