Geneious

The DeCypher plugin was developed in partnership with TimeLogic.

In Craig Venter's autobiography, A Life Decoded: My Life, My Genome, "At the Salk Institute, in La Jolla, Gerard Manning also compared the data against Pfam, a collection of signature profiles for all known protein families, with the help of "accelerator" hardware from TimeLogic, a company in Carlsbad, California. His team did almost 350 million comparisons, an order of magnitude or two more than had been achieved before. The final computation took two weeks but would have run for well more than a century on a standard computer. The trove of data was breathtaking." The TimeLogic team is pleased at the outcome of the GOS project, and looks forward to helping additional customers with their metagenomics challenges.

DeCypher®

The DeCypher plugin for Geneious Pro allows you to perform batch searches using your TimeLogic DeCypher server from within Geneious. It features a simple user interface for choosing query sequences and search parameters as well as downloading and displaying search results.

This plugin requires a DeCypher accelerator card.

TimeLogic are world-leaders in biocomputing solutions and their DeCypher hardware accelerated technology allows you to run sequence searches in a fraction of the time. HMM tests completed on one DeCypher SeqCruncher ran 550X faster than HMMer software tests completed on one 2.66 Ghz Xeon CPU core.
