PBJelly is a highly automated pipeline that aligns long sequencing reads (such as PacBio RS reads or long 454 reads in fasta format) to high-confidence draft assembles. PBJelly fills or reduces as many captured gaps as possible to produce upgraded draft genomes.

Read The Paper
http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/15/180/abstract

PBHoney is an implementation of two variant-identification approaches designed to exploit the high mappability of long reads (i.e., greater than 10,000 bp). PBHoney considers both intra-read discordance and soft-clipped tails of long reads to identify structural variants.

MyCC: Accurate binning of metagenomic contigs via automated clustering sequences using information of genomic signatures and marker genes

Jit — Fri, 03 Mar 2017 08:34:23 -0600

MyCC, an automated binning tool that combines genomic signatures, marker genes and optional contig coverages within one or multiple samples, in order to visualize the metagenomes and to identify the reconstructed genomic fragments.

Prokka: tool for the rapid annotation of prokaryotic genomes

Jit — Mon, 06 Mar 2017 03:49:57 -0600

Prokka is a software tool for the rapid annotation of prokaryotic genomes. A typical 4 Mbp genome can be fully annotated in less than 10 minutes on a quad-core computer, and scales well to 32 core SMP systems. It produces GFF3, GBK and SQN files that are ready for editing in Sequin and ultimately submitted to Genbank/DDJB/ENA.

COCACOLA (binning metagenomic contigs using sequence COmposition, read CoverAge, CO-alignment, and paired-end read LinkAge)

Jit — Tue, 07 Mar 2017 08:50:57 -0600

COCACOLA is a general framework that combines different types of information: sequence COmposition, CoverAge across multiple samples, CO-alignment to reference genomes and paired-end reads LinkAge to automatically bin contigs into OTUs. Furthermore, COCACOLA seamlessly embraces customized prior knowledge to facilitate binning accuracy.

News: Python version of COCACOLA is available now!

Krona

Jit — Wed, 22 Mar 2017 04:47:35 -0500

Krona allows hierarchical data to be explored with zooming, multi-layered pie charts. Krona charts can be created using an Excel template or KronaTools, which includes support for several bioinformatics tools and raw data formats. The interactive charts are self-contained and can be viewed with any modern web browser (see Browser support).

BioRuby :Ruby packages for biologist

Jitendra Narayan — Mon, 15 Jul 2013 01:36:28 -0500

BioRuby is a package of Open Source Ruby code, with classes for DNA and protein sequence analysis, alignment, database parsing, and other Bioinformatics tools.
BioRuby project provides an integrated environment in bioinformatics for the Ruby language. This project is supported by University of Tokyo (Human Genome Center), Kyoto University(Bioinformatics Center) and the Open Bio Foundation. The project was supported by Information-technology Promotion Agency (IPA) as an Exploratory Software Project in 2005
RubyForge is a home for open source Ruby projects: RubyForge is a home for open source Ruby projects. BioRuby project was started in late 2000, and is still in progress. Currently, there are over 80 files and 15,000 lines (except comment-only lines) in our source code. This might be equivalent to twice or more lines of other languages because of Ruby's extremely high descriptive power.

Classes for
Multiple alignment (Bio::Alignment),
Gene Ontology(Bio::GO),
PDB (Bio::PDB),
FANTOM database(Bio::FANTOM),
GFF (Bio::GFF) and KEGG
Orthology (Bio::KEGG::KO).

They also added support for many applications such as PSORT, SOSUI, TargetP, TMHMM, GenScan, ClustalW, MAFFT, and KEGG API.
