Has same usage and essentially identical output, but more than twice as fast (https://mykrobe2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/mykrobe1-vs-mykrobe2-benchmark.html).

Tool to easily interactively compare two bacteria genomes. Inspired by ACT, but easier to install and use. Drag and drop files, or download using accessions. It runs blast for you.

What's changed? Search for sequence or annotation. Download genomes from NCBI. Copy/paste sequence. Better performance - can now handle large numbers of BLAST hits instead of freezing. https://tna.readthedocs.io/en/v0.2.0/index.html https://github.com/martinghunt/tna/releases/tag/v0.2.016 Dec 2024 12:56 +0000at://did:plc:bn3p3advqhlyewkryanzkhbf/app.bsky.feed.post/3ldgeuwaq522hhttps://bsky.app/profile/martibartfast.bsky.social/post/3lc3iluwqs22eI just made a first release of TNA - new tool to compare 2 bacterial genomes. Is shamelessly inspired by ACT, but should be simpler to use. Drag-n-drop two genomes: it runs BLAST for you and then you can visualize.
