========== Genepidgin ========== Genepidgin is a suite of tools that assist in evaluation and assignment gene product names. There are three primary components: :doc:`cleaner` standardizes gene names per UNIPROT naming guidelines :doc:`compare` compares two or more sets of gene names :doc:`select` selects the most appropriate product name from a vareity of homology evidence ``genepidgin`` is developed and lightly maintained by engineers and biologists at the `Broad Institute `_. Development Status ------------------ .. warning:: *This code is in maintenance mode only, and there are better ways of doing this.* When we started this project, well-defined ontology sets were uncertain. There are enough around now that this approach is relatively antiquated. Nowadays, you're almost certainly better off with EC lookups, go-terms and similar, more direct methods.
