MToolBox is a highly automated bioinformatics pipeline to reconstruct and analyze human mitochondrial DNA from high throughput sequencing data. MToolBox includes an updated computational strategy to assemble mitochondrial genomes from Whole Exome and/or Genome Sequencing (PMID: 22669646) and an improved fragment-classify tool (PMID:22139932) for haplogroup assignment, functional and prioritization analysis of mitochondrial variants. MToolBox provides pathogenicity scores, profiles of genome variability and disease-associations for mitochondrial variants. MToolBox provides also a Variant Call Format file (version 4.0) featuring, for the first time, allele-specific heteroplasmy. Please, check out the most recent updates of the source code with the Github repository of MToolBox: https://github.com/mitoNGS/MToolBox or visit the Web version of MToolBox @ MSeqDR: https://mseqdr.org/mtoolbox.php

MitoSAlt is a pipeline to identify large deletions and duplications in human and mouse mitochondrial genomes from next generation whole genome/exome sequencing data. The pipeline is capable of analyzing any circular genome in principle, as long as a proper configuration file is provided.

Celera Assembler (CA) is a whole-genome shotgun (WGS) assembler for the reconstruction of genomic DNA sequence from WGS sequencing data.

ArrayOligoSelector (AOS) systematically designs gene specific long oligo probes for entire genomes. The program optimizes the oligo selections for several parameters, including uniqueness in the genome, internal repeats, self-binding, and GC content.

Tool for metagenomic viral community profiling

denovo_solid_pipeline (DSP) is a semi automated pipeline for short genome assembly using SOLiD sequencing data. The main features of the pipeline are the optimization of the number of read-correction runs and computational resources via dynamic programming. DSP also has the advantage over the currently available pipeline (denovo2) of generating more contigs suitable for further assembly steps, increasing the chances of detecting sequencing errors and/or polymorphic sites.

wEMBOSS is a Web interface for the EMBOSS software package for biological sequence analysis. Under wEMBOSS each user has a private workspace (UNIX home directory) on the server, where he can permanently store his data and organize them in projects. The companion suite wrappers4EMBOSS allows to integrate under EMBOSS a number of popular bioinformatic software suites as BLAST, CLUSTAL and MRS.

ADOMA stands for: Alternative Display Of Multiple Alignment. ADOMA can create four different displays of a multiple sequence alignment: a ClustalW alignment in HTML format, a simplified ClustalW alignment in HTML and/or txt format and a colored ClustalW alignment in HTML format. For examples of these outputfiles check the screenshots. ADOMA uses ClustalW to create the multiple alignment from DNA or protein sequences and displays them slightly different than the normal output of ClustalW. ADOMA is a commandline program that can easily be used in pipelines. For more information check the README.md in the Files section. How to cite ADOMA: Zaal, D. and Nota, B. (2016), ADOMA: A Command Line Tool to Modify ClustalW Multiple Alignment Output. Mol. Inf., 35: 42–44. doi: 10.1002/minf.201500083 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/minf.201500083/abstract

ALEXA-Seq is a method for using massively parallel paired-end transcriptome sequencing for 'alternative expression analysis'.

This is a collection of scripts and instructions on how to analyzing amplicon sequence data (i.e., 16S, ITS2, & other marker genes). I created this workflow to create a consistent set of methods for analyzing amplicon sequence data, from when you first receive the sequence data to statistical analyses & data visualization. All you need is to have the latest version of R installed, some experience with the command line & shell, and enough memory to run all of the programs. There are also instructions provided in case you are running these analyses via a computing cluster/Slurm workload manager. You can choose to go through the workflow using either an Rmd script, an html file, or a PDF, or via the homepage link provided. If you have questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thanks!

Tools to build molecular-docking activity prediction models by PLS regression with iterative training and pose-selection. Descriptors include (i) docking score(s), (ii) pharmacophore features, (iii) multi-feature descriptors learned by decision trees.

BCAR is a library for the associative classification, which denotes "Boosting Class Association Rules". BCAR provides a general tool for classification tasks with various types of input data.

Biospha is a suite of perl scripts based on bioperl toolkit intended to help researches to manage large sequence file. With BIOSPHA you can classify each sequence according to the NCBI taxonomy. You also can get all taxonomic info from a GI or Taxid.

BioModels Database is a data resource that allows biologists to store, search and retrieve published mathematical models of biological interests. Models presented are annotated and linked to relevant data resources and are available in various format

A collection of tools for working with the comparative data analysis ontology including import/export facilities for common phylogenetic file formats, and also a triple-store framework.

ChIP-RNA-seqPRO: A strategy for identifying regions of epigenetic deregulation associated with aberrant transcript splicing and RNA-editing sites. Runnable python scripts packaged together with customized annotation libraries, demo data input and README guide. 9/26 : v1.1 Updated MAIN_IV to debug error thrown by python pandas no longer supporting 'subset'. This code will no longer be actively maintained/updated here. A cloud-based resource for comparative analysis of epigenetic, sequence variation, and expression datasets is now available. Please visit the Cloudomics, project for cloud-based resources: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cloudomics-for-aws/

CoDeCZ derives copy number state from targeted sequencing data on gene or exon level. Results are NOT true copy number however, but they are semi-quantitative: It uses the modified z-score to calculate deviation in normalized coverage per specified region. The higher the Z-score, the higher the copy number. The final z-score depends on the quality of the data and the makeup of the reference pool.

ExonFinder provides a pipeline to extract novel cassette exons and novel retained-introns from the results of mapping cross-species ESTs against a target genome via blat.

FFP (Feature frequency profile) is an alignment free comparison tool for phylogenetic analysis and text comparison. It can be applied to nucleotide sequences, complete genomes, proteomes and even used for text comparison.

Fast Neurite Tracer (FNT) is a tool for semi-automated neurite tracing. FNT can handle big imaging data such as fMOST data. It can also process other types of light imaging data in general. FNT is designed to be * accurate in tracing (each tracing step needs your confirmation), * fast (operations using computer mouse is reduced with automatic searching), * scalable (large volume data of tera-bytes in size are supported). Other features include * the results can be exported to SWC files, * automatic detection of cycles during tracing, * support for data of multiple channels, * support for both 8-bit and 16-bit image data.

A Folding@Home integrated monitoring environment, designed for Linux, *nix systems and Windows, which is intended to be easy-to-use and provide a flexible, customiseable and "user-friendly" environment for reviewing the status of active F@H clients.

The High Throughput Sequence Analysis Pipeline uses freely available bioinformatics tools from NCBI, Phylip, EMBOSS and clustalw to identify and group closely related DNA samples. It can be run on *Nix systems linearly or in parallel using the SGE.
