compbio.mit.edu - ChromHMM is software for learning and characterizing chromatin states. ChromHMM can integrate multiple chromatin datasets such as ChIP-seq data of various histone modifications to discover de novo the major re-occuring combinatorial and spatial...

github.com - DIAMOND is a sequence aligner for protein and translated DNA searches and functions as a drop-in replacement for the NCBI BLAST software tools. It is suitable for protein-protein search as well as DNA-protein search on short reads and longer...

Data mining, the extraction of hidden predictive information from large databases. Data mining is becoming an increasingly important tool to transform this data into information. It is commonly used in a wide range of profiling practices, such as...

chunlab.wordpress.com - A tetra-nucleotide is a fragment of DNA sequence with 4 bases (e.g. AGTC or TTGG). Pride et al. (2003) showed that the frequency of tetra-nucleotides in bacterial genomes contain useful, albeit weak, phylogenetic signals. Even though...

23andMe’s mission is to help people access, understand, and benefit from the human genome. We are a group of passionate individuals excited to push the boundaries of what’s possible to help turn genetic insight into better health and personal...

www.sanger.ac.uk - PAGIT addresses the need for software to generate high quality draft genomes. It is based on a series of programs that we developed: ABACAS, that is able to contiguate contigs from a de novo assembly against a closely related reference. IMAGE, an...

A new “Download assemblies” button is now available in the Assembly database. This makes it easy to download data for multiple genomes without having to write scripts.

www.bx.psu.edu - We describe a new method for predicting the ancestral order and orientation of those intervals from their observed adjacencies in modern species. We combine the results from this method with data from chromosome painting experiments to produce a map...
