PanWSGA

Web-Based Platform for Single-Genome Pangenome Analysis

PanWSGA enables researchers to project a single bacterial genome onto a curated, species-level pangenome reference derived from more than 100,000 high-quality assemblies.

The platform integrates standardized reannotation, a custom classification engine, and a dedicated visualization module to deliver reproducible gene-category profiles and functional summaries within minutes.

Key Features

1. Single-Genome Pangenome Projection

PanWSGA classifies genes from a single genome as core, accessory or unique by mapping them to a curated species-level pangenome. This provides pangenome-level context even when no multi-genome dataset is available.

2. GeneEye Visualization Module

A dedicated visualization subsystem that integrates classification and EggNOG functional annotations of Uniques genes to produce structured, publication-ready biological summaries. GeneEye supports both static high-resolution outputs and interactive browser-based

3. GeneEye Visualization Module

A dedicated visualization subsystem that integrates classification and EggNOG functional annotations to produce structured, publication-ready biological summaries. GeneEye supports both static high-resolution outputs and interactive browser-based charts.

4. Curated, High-Quality Pangenome Database

PanWSGA includes 1,975 species-level pangenomes, each constructed from filtered, uniformly reannotated genomes and manually reviewed to remove cluster inconsistencies, paralog inflation, and contamination.

5. Reproducible, Containerized Pipeline

All analyses follow a fixed, standardized workflow-Prokka → Unique Gene Finder → EggNOG-mapper → GeneEye-executed in a containerized environment for consistency and reproducibility across submissions. (just bold the Unique Gene Finder & GeneEye) not others.

6. Fully Web-Based Execution

All computational steps run on the server. No installation, local dependencies, or computational infrastructure are required.

How It Works

1
Upload

a genome assembly in FASTA format

2
Reannotation

The genome is reannotated using Prokka

3
Gene Classification

Unique Gene Finder maps predicted proteins to pangenome clusters

4
Functional Annotation

EggNOG-mapper assigns COG/KEGG/EC annotations

5
Visualization

GeneEye generates static and dynamic summaries

6
Download

Users receive full output files, annotation tables, and publication-ready figures

Typical runtime: 2–20 minutes depending on genome size

Applications

PanWSGA serves diverse research and practical needs across multiple domains

Rapid Contextualization

Quickly place new bacterial isolates within species-level pangenome context, enabling immediate understanding of gene content relationships and evolutionary positioning.

Unique Gene Discovery

Identify rare, unusual, or unique gene content that distinguishes your genome from the species pangenome, revealing potential virulence factors, resistance genes, or novel functions.

Functional Profiling

Compare functional annotations between core, accessory, and unique gene sets to understand metabolic capabilities and potential adaptations.

Publication-Ready Outputs

Generate high-quality figures, annotation tables, and summaries suitable for direct inclusion in research publications and presentations.
