S-plot2: Rapid Visual and Statistical Analysis of Genomic Sequences

Abhimanyu Singh — Tue, 02 Oct 2018 17:57:27 -0500

S-plot2 creates an interactive, two-dimensional heatmap capturing the similarities and dissimilarities in nucleotide usage between genomic sequences (partial or complete). In S-plot2, whole eukaryotic chromosomes and smaller prokaryotic genomes can be efficiently compared. The tool includes functionality to extract, analyze, and automate BLAST queries of regions of interest within the heatmap. This facilitates the investigation of quickly evolving coding regions, novel coding regions, and laterally transferred elements.

ULTRA (ULTRA Locates Tandemly Repetitive Areas) : Effective Labeling of Repetitive Genomic Sequence

Abhi — Sat, 08 Jun 2024 16:03:39 -0500

ULTRA is a tool to find and annotate tandem repeats inside genomic sequence. It is able to find repeats of any length and of any period (up to a maximum period of 4000). It can find highly decayed repeats missed by other software, and it will also be able to find very large repeats in highly repetitive sequence, regardless of the size of sequence or length of repeats. ULTRA offers meaningful annotation scores and can produce annotation P-values at user request.

Web Apollo: a web-based genomic annotation editing platform

Jit — Fri, 28 Jul 2017 04:48:17 -0500

Web Apollo is the first instantaneous, collaborative genomic annotation editor available on the web. One of the natural consequences following from current advances in sequencing technology is that there are more and more researchers sequencing new genomes. These researchers require tools to describe the functional features of their newly sequenced genomes. With Web Apollo researchers can use any of the common browsers (for example, Chrome or Firefox) to jointly analyze and precisely describe the features of a genome in real time, whether they are in the same room or working from opposite sides of the world.

ALPACA: A hybrid strategy for assembly of genomic DNA shotgun sequencing reads.

Seema Singh — Mon, 30 Apr 2018 04:38:40 -0500

ALPACA requires Celera Assembler 8.3 or later. It is recommended to build Celera Assembler from source. (Why? The pre-built binaries CA_8.3rc1 and CA8.3rc2 will work for any large data set.

FGENESH - Program for predicting multiple genes in genomic DNA sequences

BioStar — Thu, 20 Dec 2018 11:55:08 -0600

FGENESH is the fastest (50-100 times faster than GenScan) and most accurate gene finder available - see the figure and the table below. In recent rice genome sequencing projects, it was cited "the most successful (gene finding) program (Yu et al. (2002) Science 296:79) and was used to produce 87% of all high-evidence predicted genes (Goff et al. (2002) Science 296:79).

GTDB-Tk: A toolkit for assigning objective taxonomic classifications to bacterial and archaeal genomes.

Rahul Nayak — Wed, 22 Aug 2018 03:21:01 -0500

GTDB-Tk is a software toolkit for assigning objective taxonomic classifications to bacterial and archaeal genomes. It is computationally efficient and designed to work with recent advances that allow hundreds or thousands of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) to be obtained directly from environmental samples. It can also be applied to isolate and single-cell genomes. The GTDB-Tk is open source and released under the GNU General Public License (Version 3).

GTDB-Tk is under active development and validation. Please independently confirm the GTDB-Tk predictions by manually inspecting the tree and bringing any discrepencies to our attention. Notifications about GTDB-Tk releases will be available through the ACE Twitter account (https://twitter.com/ace_uq).
