What is the Australian Fgenesh++ Service?

Fgenesh++ is a pipeline for automatic prediction of genes in eukaryotic genomes based on gene finding software. Fgenesh++ is a software package that uses a combination of copyrighted and public software and data to automatically annotate genomes. The copyrighted software is owned by Softberry.

The Australian BioCommons (hosted byThe University of Melbourne) offers Australian-based researchers fully subsidised access to the Fgenesh++ license with resources and service support underpinned by Pawsey Supercomputing Centre. If you would like to know more about the funding and operation of Fgenesh++ Service, please see our webpage.

How do I access Fgenesh++?

Researchers can apply to access Fgenesh++ via the Australian Fgenesh++ Service by completing the Fgenesh++ Service Sign Up. To be approved a user will need to be from an Australian research institute or university. Once you have completed the sign up form you will be notified within two business days. 

If you are a Pawsey user, you will be notified of the reservation system to access Fgenesh++. If you are new to Pawsey, a user account will be created for you. 

How do I reserve my access to Fgenesh++?

Once you have signed in to the reservation system, you will be granted access and notified to view the schedule. 

You can then block out a time period of up to three weeks. To do this, you can:

  1. Make a reservation on our reservation portal (ensure you change the timezone on your profile accordingly); and
  2. Receive an email on further login details of the resource you signed up for.

How do I make a public key?

A public key available to access our Nimbus instances, if that is the system your requested application is on. 

To create a keypair, use the following commands on your local machine (the computer that you will be accessing the Pawsey resource from):

ssh-keygen -t rsa -f ~/.ssh/firstname_lastname_key

chmod 600 ~/.ssh/firstname_lastname_key

cat ~/.ssh/firstname_lastname_key.pub

The output of the last command is the public key. Please note that you should never give out the private key, which is stored in ~/.ssh/ as above.

Who is funding and operating Australian Fgenesh++ Service?

The Australian BioCommons (hosted by The University of Melbourne operates Fgenesh++ Service in collaboration with, and underpinned by resources provided by, Pawsey Supercomputing Centre and investment from the Australian Research Data Commons and Bioplatforms Australia. The service is underpinned by computational resources provided by the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre.
