UniversalMer

UniversalMer is a k-mer counting tool for multiple size of k at once. It is available for DNA, RNA, and protein sequences. The program counts and summarizes the exact frequency of all k-mers from 1-mer to a user-defined maximum length (kmax). Analyzing the k-mer spectrum across multiple values of k can be done in seconds. This program is designed for bioinformatics researchers and scientists.

Features

Counting k-mers with multiple k's value at once.
Counting 1-mers to kmax specified by user.
Counting large k-mers in practical time
Support k limit up to any sizes
Finding maximum length of repeat patterns
Support DNA sequences, RNA sequences, and proteins sequences.
Practical running time and memory usage
Show spectrum of 1-mers to kmax-mers within seconds
Dumping 1-mers to kmax-mers patterns within seconds
Enable configuring minimum frequency for counting
Separating singleton k-mers from repeats k-mers
