GWASpro: A High-Performance Genome-Wide Association Analysis Server

Rahul Nayak — Fri, 07 Dec 2018 08:04:57 -0600

GWASpro supports building complex design matrices, by which complex experimental designs that may include replications, treatments, locations and times, can be accounted for in the linear mixed model (LMM). GWASpro is optimized to handle GWAS data that may consist of up to 10 million markers and 10,000 samples from replicable lines or hybrids. GWASpro provides an interface that significantly reduces the learning curve for new GWAS investigators.

Bactopia: a Flexible Pipeline for Complete Analysis of Bacterial Genomes

Abhi — Wed, 15 May 2024 14:36:12 -0500

Bactopia is a flexible pipeline for complete analysis of bacterial genomes. The goal of Bactopia is to process your data with a broad set of tools, so that you can get to the fun part of analyses quicker!

Bactopia can be split into two main parts: Bactopia Analysis Pipeline, and Bactopia Tools.

Bactopia Analysis Pipeline is the main per-isolate workflow in Bactopia. Built with Nextflow, input FASTQs (local or available from SRA/ENA) are put through numerous analyses including: quality control, assembly, annotation, minmer sketch queries, sequence typing, and more.

Bactopia Tools are a set a independent workflows fo

Mesquite: A modular system for evolutionary analysis

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 18 Jul 2017 07:42:46 -0500

Mesquite is modular, extendible software for evolutionary biology, designed to help biologists organize and analyze comparative data about organisms. Its emphasis is on phylogenetic analysis, but some of its modules concern population genetics, while others do non-phylogenetic multivariate analysis. Because it is modular, the analyses available depend on the modules installed.

RNAseq data analysis links !

Robert M Willioms — Mon, 27 Nov 2017 16:28:11 -0600

RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) has a wide variety of applications, but no single analysis pipeline can be used in all cases. We review all of the major steps in RNA-seq data analysis, including experimental design, quality control, read alignment, quantification of gene and transcript levels, visualization, differential gene expression, alternative splicing, functional analysis, gene fusion detection and eQTL mapping.

EGAD: Ultra-fast functional analysis of gene networks

Rahul Nayak — Fri, 14 Dec 2018 04:10:35 -0600

With the EGAD (Extending ‘Guilt-by-Association’ by Degree) package, we present a series of highly efficient tools to calculate functional properties in networks based on the guilt-by-association principle. These allow rapid controlled comparisons and analyses. Two of the core features are: a function prediction algorithm which is fully vectorized (neighbor_voting), allowing network characterization across even thousands of functional groups to be accomplished in minutes in cross-validation and an analytic determination of the optimal prior to guess candidates genes across multiple functional sets (calculate_multifunc, auc_multifunc).

ProteoClade: A taxonomic toolkit for multi-species and metaproteomic analysis

Jit — Wed, 18 Mar 2020 14:27:20 -0500

ProteoClade is a Python library for taxonomic-based annotation and quantification of bottom-up proteomics data. It is designed to be user-friendly, and has been optimized for speed and storage requirements.

ProteoClade helps you analyze two general categories of experiments:

Targeted Database Searches: 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).
De Novo Searches: 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).

ProteoClade scales from two organisms to every organism in UniProt. Please refer to the complete documentation at proteoclade.readthedocs.io for installation, a user's guide, and examples.
