clark.cs.ucr.edu - CLARK, a method based on a supervised sequence classification using discriminative k-mers. Considering two distinct specific classification problems (see the article for details), namely (1) the taxonomic classification of metagenomic reads to...

github.com - FlexiDot is a cross-platform dotplot suite generating high quality self, pairwise and all-against-all visualizations. To improve dotplot suitability for comparison of consensus and error-prone sequences, FlexiDot harbors routines for strict and...

academic.oup.com - LoReTTA (Long Read Template-Targeted Assembler), a tool designed for performing de novo assembly of long reads generated from viral genomes on the PacBio platform. LoReTTA exploits a reference genome to guide the assembly process, an approach that...

github.com - ContigExtender, was developed to extend contigs, complementing de novo assembly. ContigExtender employs a novel recursive Overlap Layout Candidates (r-OLC) strategy that explores multiple extending paths to achieve longer and highly accurate...

compbio.case.edu - Seal is a comprehensive sequencing simulation and alignment tool evaluation suite. This software (implemented in Java) provides several utilities that can be used to evaluate alignment algorithms, including: Reading a pre-existing reference...

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - we propose a heuristic algorithm, called DUPCAR, for reconstructing ancestral genomic orders with duplications. The method starts from the order of genes in modern genomes and predicts predecessor and successor relationships in the ancestor. Then a...

006 - Phylogenetics Paul Andersen discusses the specifics of phylogenetics. The evolutionary relationships of organisms are discovered through both morphological and molecular data. A specific type of phylogenetic tree, the cladogram, is also...

Mike Ritchie Lab primary research focus is the detection of susceptibility genes for common diseases such as cancer, diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease, among others. The approaches will involve the development and application of new...

University of Sheffield geneticist and bioinformatics expert Dr Eran Elhaik demonstrates the power of his new DNA research, which allows people to discover their genetic homeland from 1000 years ago. Find out more about our biological research here...

Center for Molecular Dynamics Nepal (CMDN), established 2007 prides itself as a research driven nongovernmental organization. Unlike other civil society organizations, CMDN is dedicated entirely to promoting research in the country. With its team of...
