HistoneDB 2.0 – with variants

Anjana — Fri, 03 Jun 2016 05:06:20 -0500

This histone database can be used to explore the diversity of histone proteins and their sequence variants in many organisms. The resource was established to better understand how sequence variation may affect functional and structural features of nucleosomes. To get started, select a histone type to explore its variants.

MutaBind

Jit — Mon, 06 Jun 2016 13:34:09 -0500

MutaBind is a new computational method and server created through NCBI research efforts that maps mutations on a protein structural complex, calculates changes in binding affinity, identifies deleterious mutations and produces a downloadable mutant structural model. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/mutabind/index.fcgi/

MutaBind guides you through this process, step by step, starting with selecting a protein complex and inputting PDB code or uploading PDB files. You can also retrieve results with a job ID number, view help documents, and review the MutaBind method and references.

CovCal: Coverage / Read Count Calculator

Jit — Wed, 15 Jun 2016 18:08:13 -0500

Coverage / Read Count Calculator

Calculate how much sequencing you need to hit a target depth of coverage (or vice versa).

Instructions: set the read length/configuration and genome size, then select what you want to calculate.

Written by Stephen Turner, based on the Lander-Waterman formula, inspired by a similar calculator written by James Hadfield. Coverage is calculated as C=LN/G and reads as N=CG/L where C = Coverage (X),L = Read length (bp), G = Haploid genome size (bp), and N = Number of reads. Source code on GitHub.
