RASTA-Bacteria: a web-based tool for identifying toxin-antitoxin loci in prokaryotes.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Methods of microarray analysis that suit experimentalists using the technology are vital. Many methodologies discard the quantitative results inherent in cDNA microarray comparisons or cannot be flexibly applied to multifactorial experimental design. Here we present a flexible, quantitative Bayesian framewor...
