Development of computational tools for metagenomic and genomic data analysis.
Metabiolic pathway reconstruction in newly sequenced genomes.
Human genome analysis.
Genomics Analysis of Novel Organisms Prokaryotes (Termite Gut Bacteria): Genome Sequencing, Analysis and annotation of two bacterial genomes from Termite gut with the aim to identify novel enzymes significant for its survival or for bio-fuel production.
Using fecal samples from 13 healthy individuals of various ages, including unweaned infants, to identify the genomic features common to all human gut microbiomes as well as those variable among them.
MetaBioME (Comprehensive Metagenomic BioMining Engine): Identify novel commercially useful enzymes (biocatalysts) employed in Industry, Medicine, Agriculture, Biotechnology, Environment, etc., from metagenomic datasets. MetaBin: Fast and accurate taxonomic assignments of metagenomic sequences using MetaBin.
