Dfam

This FAIRsharing record describes: The Dfam database is a collection of Repetitive DNA element sequence alignments, hidden Markov models (HMMs) and matches lists for complete Eukaryote genomes. Dfam represents a collection of alignments and HMMs of such transposable elements and other repetitive DNA elements. The Dfam website gives information about each model, and provides genome annotations for a collection of core genomes. The models may also be downloaded from the ftp site, for example to mask repeats in new genomes.

本FAIRsharing记录描述如下：Dfam数据库是针对完整真核生物基因组的重复DNA元件（Repetitive DNA element）序列比对、隐马尔可夫模型（Hidden Markov Models, HMMs）及匹配列表的集合。Dfam收录了各类转座元件与其他重复DNA元件的比对结果及隐马尔可夫模型。Dfam官方网站可提供各模型的详细信息，并为核心基因组集合提供基因组注释服务。用户亦可通过FTP站点下载这些模型，例如用于屏蔽新基因组中的重复序列。
