Prokka
Rapid prokaryotic genome annotation
Prokka is a command-line software tool for rapid annotation of prokaryotic genomes (bacteria and archaea). Given a FASTA file of contigs, it predicts genes, rRNAs, tRNAs, and other functional elements, then assigns functions by comparing to reference protein databases and HMM profiles. It outputs GenBank, GFF, and other formats compatible with downstream tools and genome browsers. Prokka handles common complications—overlapping ORFs, frameshifts, alternate start codons—while providing...
