A header file (cexcept.h) that provides Try/Throw/Catch macros similar to those available in C++ for error handling.

A bioinformatics tool to PRe-process and show INformation of SEQuence data. The tool is written in Perl and can be helpful if you want to filter, reformat, or trim your sequence data. It also generates basic statistics for your sequences.

Maq is a set of programs that map and assemble fixed-length Solexa/SOLiD reads in a fast and accurate way.

NOTE: The MView repository and web pages have moved to: https://github.com/desmid/mview https://desmid.github.io/mview/ Release tarballs will continue to be uploaded to SourceForge. ---- MView is a command line utility that extracts and reformats the results of a sequence database search or a multiple alignment, optionally adding HTML markup for web page layout. It can also be used as a filter to extract and convert searches or alignments to common formats. Inputs: - Sequence database search: BLAST, FASTA suites. - Multiple sequence alignment: CLUSTAL, HSSP, MSF, FASTA, PIR, MAF. Outputs: - HTML, FASTA, CLUSTAL, MSF, PIR, RDB (tab-separated). Found a bug? Please open an issue on the MView issue tracker at https://github.com/desmid/mview/issues or send an email to biomview@gmail.com.

The Sashimi project hosts the Trans-Proteomic Pipeline (TPP), a mature suite of tools for mass-spec (MS, MS/MS) based proteomics: statistical validation, quantitation, visualization, and converters from raw MS data to the open mzML/mzXML formats.

GPL-licensed Electronic Medical Record and Practice Management system for medical providers that runs in any web browser in multiple languages. It provides an XML-RPC backend and multiple import and export formats, as well as reporting and other features

proTRAC detects genomic piRNA clusters. It considers all the relevant features of mapped sequence reads like the amount of 1U/10A, size and strand bias to ensure a high specificity.

The Blue Obelisk Data Repository lists many important chemoinformatics data such as element and isotope properties, atomic radii, etc. including references to original literature. Developers can use this repository to make their software interoperable.

GMOD is a set of interoperable open source software components for visualizing, annotating, and managing biological data. See http://gmod.org for more.

Now in Github: https://github.com/dnaase/Bis-tools/tree/master/Bis-SNP BisSNP is a package based on the Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) map-reduce framework for genotyping in bisulfite treated massively parallel sequencing (Bisulfite-seq, NOMe-seq and RRBS) on Illumina platform. It uses bayesian inference with either manually specified or automatically estimated methylation probabilities of different cytosine context(not only CpG, CHH, CHG in Bisulfite-seq, but also GCH et.al. in other bisulfite treated sequencing) to determine genotypes and methylation levels simultaneously. It works for both of single-end and paired-end reads.Specificity and sensitivity has been validate by Illumina IM SNP array. In default threshold 30X data (Phred scale score > 20), it could detect 92.21% heterozygous SNPs with 0.14% false positive rate Cytosine calling is not only based on reference context, so it could detect non-reference cytosine context.

FSA is a probabilistic multiple sequence alignment algorithm which uses a "distance-based" approach to aligning homologous protein, RNA or DNA sequences.

Bioinformatics pipeline for discovery of genetic variants from NGS reads.

GenSeed-HMM is a program for seed-driven progressive DNA assembly. It differs from the previously published GenSeed in many aspects, but more pointedly by being able to use an HMM profile as seed. Basically, GenSeed-HMM performs three operations, repeatedly: - recruit reads by matching them to a seed - assemble the recruited reads (including previously assembled contigs) - generate new seeds (for the next round of progressive assembly) from the extremities of all generated contigs The first seed is provided by the user, and can be a piece of DNA or protein sequence, or an HMM profile, for increased sensitivity. This program depends on BLAST+ or hmmsearch and a number of third-party support tools (EMBOSS' transeq and splitter, bowtie, 454's sfffile and sffinfo). Which tools will be mandatory depends on the kind of seed and assembler used. Assemblers currently supported include CAP3, Newbler, SOAPdenovo, Velvet, and Abyss.

Tracetuner is a tool for base and quality calling of trace files from DNA sequencing instruments. Originally developed by Paracel, a Celera Business, this code base was released as open source in 2006. TraceTuner was used by Celera to call 30+ million reads from both Drosophila and human genome sequencing projects. In 2000, Applied Biosystems bundled TraceTuner with ABI3700 Genome Analyzers and shipped it to the customers of these capillary electrophoresis sequencers. Later versions of TraceTuner, which support mixed base calling, have been used by the research community, the private biotech sector, and the U.S. government as components of different variant detection, genotyping and forensic software applications (e.g. Applied Biosystems SeqScape, Paracel Genome Assembler, MTexpert, etc.).
