	<title><![CDATA[ProteoClade: A taxonomic toolkit for multi-species and metaproteomic analysis]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>ProteoClade is a Python library for&nbsp;<span>taxonomic-based annotation and quantification of bottom-up proteomics data</span>. It is designed to be user-friendly, and has been optimized for speed and storage requirements.</p>
<p>ProteoClade helps you analyze two general categories of experiments:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p><span><em>Targeted Database</em>&nbsp;Searches:</span>&nbsp;Experiments in which a limited number of species are defined ahead of time, such as those involving Patient-Derived Xenografts (PDXs) or host-pathogen interactions. Reference protein sequence databases are used for targeted searches (ex: using Mascot, MaxQuant).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><span><em>De Novo</em>&nbsp;Searches:</span>&nbsp;Experiments in which the organisms are unspecified ahead of time or involve samples of high taxonomic complexity. Mass spectra are analyzed in the absence of a reference database (ex: using PEAKS, PepNovo).</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>ProteoClade scales from two organisms to every organism in UniProt. Please&nbsp;<a href="https://proteoclade.readthedocs.io/">refer to the complete documentation at proteoclade.readthedocs.io</a>&nbsp;for installation, a user's guide, and examples.</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Bactopia is a flexible pipeline for complete analysis of bacterial genomes. The goal of Bactopia is process your data with a broad set of tools, so that you can get to the fun part of analyses quicker!</p>
<p>Bactopia was inspired by&nbsp;<a href="https://staphopia.github.io/">Staphopia</a>, a workflow we (Tim Read and myself) released that is targeted towards&nbsp;<em>Staphylococcus aureus</em>&nbsp;genomes. Using what we learned from Staphopia and user feedback, Bactopia was developed from scratch with usability, portability, and speed in mind from the start.</p>
<p>Bactopia uses&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nextflow.io/">Nextflow</a>&nbsp;to manage the workflow, allowing for support of many types of environments (e.g. cluster or cloud). Bactopia allows for the usage of many public datasets as well as your own datasets to further enhance the analysis of your sequencing. Bactopia only uses software packages available from&nbsp;<a href="https://bioconda.github.io/">Bioconda</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://conda-forge.org/">Conda-Forge</a>&nbsp;to make installation as simple as possible for&nbsp;<em>all</em>&nbsp;users.</p>
<p>To highlight the use of&nbsp;<a href="https://bactopia.github.io/latest/full-guide/">Bactopia</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://bactopia.github.io/latest/bactopia-tools/">Bactopia Tools</a>, we performed an analysis of 1,664 public&nbsp;<em>Lactobacillus</em>&nbsp;genomes, focusing on&nbsp;<em>Lactobacillus crispatus</em>, a species that is a common part of the human vaginal microbiome. The results from this analysis are published in mSystems under the title:&nbsp;<em><a href="https://doi.org/10.1128/mSystems.00190-20">Bactopia: a flexible pipeline for complete analysis of bacterial genomes</a></em></p>

	<title><![CDATA[List of gene ontology software and tools]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The Gene Ontology (GO) is a set of associations from biological phrases to specific genes that are either chosen by trained curators or generated automatically. GO is designed to rigorously encapsulate the known relationships between biological terms and and all genes that are instances of these terms. These Gene Ontology has become an extremely useful tool for the analysis of genomic data and structuring of biological knowledge. Several excellent software tools for navigating the gene ontology have been developed.</p><p><img src="http://ohnosequences.com/images/GoSlimBlog.svg" alt="image" width="500" height="380" style="border: 0px; border: 0px;"></p><p>The GO provides core biological knowledge representation for modern biologists, whether computationally or experimentally based. GO resources include biomedical ontologies that cover molecular domains of all life forms as well as extensive compilations of gene product annotations to these ontologies that provide largely species-neutral, comprehensive statements about what gene products do. Although extensively used in data analysis workflows, and widely incorporated into numerous data analysis platforms and applications, the general user of GO resources often misses fundamental distinctions about GO structures, GO annotations, and what can and can not be extrapolated from GO resources. Here are ten quick tips for using the Gene Ontology.</p><p>Read "Ten Quick Tips for Using the Gene Ontology" at http://www.ploscompbiol.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pcbi.1003343</p><p>Following are the most commonly used old and new GO term enrichment determination tools. These tools are recommended to people working in a wet-lab.</p><p><strong>CLASSIFI (Department of Pathology, UT Southwestern Medical Center)</strong></p><p>CLASSIFI (Cluster Assignment for Biological Inference) is a data-mining tool that can be used to identify significant co-clustering of genes with similar functional properties (e.g. cellular response to DNA damage). Briefly, CLASSIFI uses the Gene OntologyTM (GO) gene annotation scheme to define the functional properties of all genes/probes in a microarray data set, and then applies a cumulative hypergeometric distribution analysis to determine if any statistically significant gene ontology co-clustering has occurred.</p><p><a href="http://pathcuric1.swmed.edu/pathdb/classifi.html">http://pathcuric1.swmed.edu/pathdb/classifi.html</a></p><p><strong>EasyGO (China Agricultural University)</strong></p><p>EasyGO is designed to automate enrichment job for experimental biologists to identify enriched Gene Ontology (GO) terms in a list of microarray probe sets or gene identifiers (with expression information for PAGE analysis). Also EasyGO is also a GO annotation database, especially focus on agronomical species, supporting 30 species. It is user friendly, with advanced result browsing format and in-time update.</p><p><a href="http://bioinformatics.cau.edu.cn/neweasygo/">http://bioinformatics.cau.edu.cn/neweasygo/</a></p><p><a href="http://bioinformatics.cau.edu.cn/easygo/">http://bioinformatics.cau.edu.cn/easygo/</a></p><p><strong>g:GOSt (Institute of Computer Science, University of Tartu)</strong></p><p>g:GOSt retrieves most significant Gene Ontology (GO) terms, KEGG and REACTOME pathways, and TRANSFAC motifs to a user-specified group of genes, proteins or microarray probes. g:GOSt also allows analysis of ranked or ordered lists of genes, visual browsing of GO graph structure, interactive visualisation of retrieved results, and many other features.
