github.com - Third generation sequencing (TGS) are highly promising technologies but the long and noisy reads from TGS are difficult to align using existing algorithms. Here, we present COSINE, a conceptually new method designed specifically for aligning long...

github.com - Gepard (German: "cheetah", Backronym for "GEnome PAir - Rapid Dotter") allows the calculation of dotplots even for large sequences like chromosomes or bacterial genomes. Reference: Krumsiek J, Arnold R, Rattei T. Gepard: A rapid and sensitive tool...

IgBLAST 1.17 is now available with improved identification of productive V gene sequences

Palindromes are sequences of nucleotides that read the same backward as forward.

easyfig.sourceforge.net - Easyfig has moved to github, for newer releases of Easyfig please visit our new webpage - https://mjsull.github.io/Easyfig.  Easyfig is a Python application for creating linear comparison figures of multiple genomic loci with an easy-to-use...

bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org - This is the andi program for estimating the evolutionary distance between closely related genomes. These distances can be used to rapidly infer phylogenies for big sets of genomes. Because andi does not compute full alignments, it is so efficient...

http://docs.bpipe.org/ - Bpipe provides a platform for running big bioinformatics jobs that consist of a series of processing stages - known as 'pipelines'. January 20th, 2016 - New! Bpipe 0.9.9 released! Download latest, all Documentation Mailing List (Google...

apps.bioconnector.virginia.edu - Coverage / Read Count Calculator Calculate how much sequencing you need to hit a target depth of coverage (or vice versa). Instructions: set the read length/configuration and genome size, then select what you want to calculate. Written by Stephen...

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - HGT-Finder: (i) can be used for HGT detection in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, (ii) can report a statistical P value for each gene to indicate how likely it is to be horizontally transferred, and (iii) is fully automated (requires...

github.com - MGERT is a computational pipeline for easy retrieving of MGE's coding sequences of a particular family from genome assemblies. MGERT utilizes several established bioinformatic tools combined into single pipeline which hides different...
