MetaPred2CS

Manisha Mishra — Fri, 03 Mar 2017 05:15:07 -0600

MetaPred2CS Web server is a meta-predictor based on Support Vector Machine (SVM) that combines 6 individual sequence based protein-protein interaction prediction methods to predict prokaryotic two-component system protein-protein interactions (PPIs). The methods implemented in MetaPred2CS are 2 co-evolutionary methods: in-silico two hybrid (i2h) and mirror tree (MT) methods and 4 genomics context based methods: phylogenetic profiling (PP), gene fusion (GF), gene neighbourhood (GN) and and gene operon methods (GO).

LAST

Bulbul — Mon, 19 Dec 2016 14:07:53 -0600

LAST can:

Handle big sequence data, e.g:
- Compare two vertebrate genomes
- Align billions of DNA reads to a genome
Indicate the reliability of each aligned column.
Use sequence quality data properly.
Compare DNA to proteins, with frameshifts.
Compare PSSMs to sequences
Calculate the likelihood of chance similarities between random sequences.
Do split and spliced alignment.
Train alignment parameters for unusual kinds of sequence (e.g. nanopore).

Bookmarks Biostatistics materials and books

Jit — Tue, 08 Nov 2016 07:42:42 -0600

Biostatistics did not spring fully formed from the brow of R. A. Fisher, but evolved over many years. This process is continuing, although it may not be obvious from the outside. It has been ten years since the first edition of this book appeared (and rather longer since it was begun). Over this time, new areas of biostatistics have been developed and emphases and interpretations have changed

Please bookmarks your favourate biostatistics books in commend sectons ...

GoJS

Jit — Tue, 22 Nov 2016 08:25:37 -0600

GoJS is a feature-rich JavaScript library for implementing custom interactive diagrams and complex visualizations across modern web browsers and platforms. GoJS makes constructing JavaScript diagrams of complex nodes, links, and groups easy with customizable templates and layouts.

GoJS offers many advanced features for user interactivity such as drag-and-drop, copy-and-paste, in-place text editing, tooltips, context menus, automatic layouts, templates, data binding and models, transactional state and undo management, palettes, overviews, event handlers, commands, and an extensible tool system for custom operations.

GoJS is pure JavaScript, so users get interactivity without requiring round-trips to servers and without plugins. GoJS normally runs completely in the browser, rendering to an HTML5 Canvas element or SVG without any server-side requirements. GoJS does not depend on any JavaScript libraries or frameworks, so it should work with any HTML or JavaScript framework or with no framework at all.

GenomeComp

Jit — Fri, 17 Feb 2017 08:38:32 -0600

GenomeComp is a tool for summarizing, parsing and visualizing the genome wide sequence comparison results derived from voluminous BLAST textual output, so as to locate the rearrangements, insertions or deletions of genome segments between species or strains.

It can be easily used to compare, parsing and visualize large genomic sequences, especially closely related genomes such as inter-species or inter-strains. In addition, it can also show other sequence features like repeat sequence distributions in one whole-genome DNA sequence by comparing the genome to itself.

It is a stand-alone graphical user interface (GUI) program which runs on Linux, Unix, Mac OS X (tested on version 10.2.4 only) and Microsoft Windows platforms and is written in Perl/Tk.

PEAR

Jit — Mon, 19 Dec 2016 09:28:30 -0600

PEAR is an ultrafast, memory-efficient and highly accurate pair-end read merger. It is fully parallelized and can run with as low as just a few kilobytes of memory.

PEAR evaluates all possible paired-end read overlaps and without requiring the target fragment size as input. In addition, it implements a statistical test for minimizing false-positive results. Together with a highly optimized implementation, it can merge millions of paired end reads within a couple of minutes on a standard desktop computer.
