GATACA is a cross-functional team organized arounf developing disease-specific molecular genome software solutions for pathogen biologists. With viral pathogenicity a healthcare problem worldwide despite the availability of a plethora of commercial and open-source molecular analysis software tools, current molecular genome data assimilation methods are less than effective in curing and preventing virus-induced pathogenic disease. Gataca's HEPCbase streamlines genomic data management and decreases the time between discovery and drug development. Data management problems plague HCV researchers, significantly hampering their efforts to quantify the viral life cycle, infectivity and anti-viral drug resistance. HCV research necessitates ongoing, repetitive sequencing of the numerous HCV genomes and generates a massive accumulation of investigational data with attendant data management problems. Gataca's approach is to simplify HCV data storage and analysis. The firm's software streamlines the discovery process with data organization and applications integrating genetic, experimental and clinical data. The firm's OneGenomeBox is a genome sequence data management system that removes the pain of NGS file uploads and transfers, and enables pre- and post-alignment NGS data exploration with automatic data extraction and powerful graphics.
