GenBank Now Supports EGAPx-Based Annotation

With the latest release of EGAPx, we’re excited to announce that you can now submit genome assemblies with EGAPx annotations directly to GenBank. We’re making it easier for researchers to share richly annotated eukaryotic genomes, complete with structural and functional features generated by the EGAPx pipeline.

What’s new?

Easily integrate your EGAPx annotations into GenBank: You can now attach the EGAPx-generated ASN.1 annotation file as part of a submission package.
