Aptean GenomeQuest Revolutionizes IP Sequence Search With New, Easy-to-Use Browser and Variant Detection Capability

Thursday, 1 November 2018

Alpharetta, GA, November 1, 2018 – Aptean, a leading global provider of mission-critical, industry-specific enterprise software solutions, has developed a new, more streamlined browser for Aptean GenomeQuest, its intellectual property (IP) sequence search tool that accesses the world's most comprehensive and up-to-date IP sequence database.

The new GQ Discover Result Browser’s intuitive user interface is easier for searchers to learn and use, improving their efficiency and ability to collaborate with other stakeholders via result sharing, Microsoft Excel or Word. The browser’s enhanced clustering, summary views and interactive analysis features streamline analysis of sequence search results.

“With the amount of data produced by IP sequence searches, reviewing results can be challenging and time-consuming for any searcher. New users to the field of sequence searching in particular face a steep learning curve when learning how to analyze search results,” said Henk Heus, senior director of GenomeQuest products for Aptean. “Aptean GenomeQuest’s products are relatively easy to use, and the GQ Discover Results Browser offers enhanced features that help searchers examine large sets of results faster and make analysis even more intuitive.”

Sequence Variation Discovery Module makes searches more precise

In addition to the browser, GenomeQuest is introducing an optional add-on, the Sequence Variation Discovery Module, to its search tools. Previous tools did not have the functionality to detect position-specific variations and constant regions. The new module offers that functionality with specialized filters and variation landscape reports that pinpoint specific variants. These unique capabilities help accelerate the discovery process for researchers, and provide precision and specificity to IP and search professionals.

Aptean GenomeQuest is an intellectual property (IP) sequence search tool that leverages the world's most comprehensive and up-to-date IP sequence database, which contains more than 400 million sequences, along with four state-of-the-art sequence comparison algorithms to provide powerful tools for patent sequence search and analysis. GenomeQuest offers the most extensive IP sequence database, more powerful comparison algorithms, a more streamlined and efficient interface, and more thorough and precise result analysis and reporting than its competitors.
