Annotation service

 REPETDB is a database of transposable elements. Reference sequences for various species are stored with the Intermine data warehouse framework.

Reference transposable elements are presented with their evidences allowing to determine their classification according to  PASTEC , the classifier of the  REPET package. Transposable elements can be queried and visualized using the powerful capabilities of  Intermine . 

Most of the REPETDB datasets also provide the consensus copy annotation on genome via a Track Hub referenced on  Track Hub Registry .

Refer to the    documentation for more information about the REPETDB data submission.
