	<description><![CDATA[<p>LifeMap Sciences is introducing&nbsp;<a href="http://geneanalytics.genecards.org/">GeneAnalytics</a>, our new gene set analysis tool, which is applicable for NGS results and differentially expressed gene lists from variable sources. GeneAnalytics provides&nbsp;gene associations with tissues &amp; cells, diseases, pathways, GO terms and compounds.</p><p>Our main advantages over other similar tools are:</p><ul>
<li>GeneAnalytics is very simple and intuitive to use.</li>
<li>GeneAnalytics is based on our proprietary databases &ndash;&nbsp;<strong>GeneCards</strong>, MalaCards, PathCards and LifeMap Discovery, each of them integrates information from a very large number of resources.</li>
<li>GeneAnalytics supplies links for extensive background information on each of the matched results.</li>
</ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I invite you to try it out for free at&nbsp;geneanalytics.genecards.org, and would be happy to hear your comments and thoughts on how we can improve.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Yours,</p><p>Shani Ben-Ari Fuchs</p><p>LifeMap Sciences Team</p>]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[
<p>TheLab seek to understand the genetic factors contributing to genomic variation and phenotypic diversity.  To this end, we employ molecular and bioinformatic tools to study evolutionary processes at the level of populations, both experimental and natural, and genomes.  Our research interests encompass a wide range of topics, including the evolution of organellar and nuclear genomes, gene duplication and the origin of novel function, and the fitness and phenotypic consequences of mutation in evolution.

	<title><![CDATA[YASS :: genomic similarity search tool]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>YASS is a genomic similarity search tool, for nucleic (DNA/RNA) sequences in fasta or plain text format (<em>it produces local pairwise alignments</em>). Like most of the heuristic pairwise local alignment tools for DNA sequences (FASTA, BLAST, PATTERNHUNTER, BLASTZ/LASTZ, LAST ...), YASS uses <em>seeds</em> to detect potential similarity regions, and then tries to extend them to local alignments. This genomic search tool uses <em>multiple transition constrained spaced seeds</em> that enable to search more fuzzy repeats, as non-coding DNA/RNA. Another simple, but interesting feature is that you can specify the seed pattern used in the search step (as provided for example by <a href="http://bioinfo.lifl.fr/yass/iedera.php">iedera</a>).</p>
<p>Main features of YASS are:</p>
<ul>
<li>multiple, possibly overlapping seeds and a new hit criterion to ensure a good sensitivity/selectivity trade-off</li>
<li>transition-constrained spaced seeds to improve sensitivity (transition mutations are purine to purine [<code>A&lt;-&gt;G</code>] or pyrimidine to pyrimidine [<code>C&lt;-&gt;T</code>])</li>
<li>using different scoring schemes with bit-score and E-value evaluated according to the sequence background frequencies</li>
<li>parameterizable <em>output</em> filter for low complexity repeats</li>
<li>reporting of various alignment statistical parameters (mutation bias along triplets, transition/transversion)</li>
<li>post-processing step to group gapped alignments</li>

	<title><![CDATA[SATSUMA : Highly sensitive whole-genome synteny alignments.]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Satsuma is a whole-genome synteny alignment program. It takes two genomes, computes alignments, and then keeps only the parts that are orthologous, i.e. following the conserved order and orientation of features, such as protein coding genes, non-coding genes, or neutral sequences. Satsuma does not require any pre-processing, such as repeat masking, since it will automatically detect ambiguous mappings.<br> <br> Satsuma has parallelization built-in and is designed to run on multi-core architectures. The run-time for aligning two bird-size genomes (~1.2 Gb) is around two days on 24 CPUs. <br> <br> You can find the manual <a href="http://satsuma.sourceforge.net/manual.html">here</a>.<br> Download the latest source code from <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/satsuma/">here.</a><br> Stable versions can also be downloaded from the <a href="https://www.broadinstitute.org/science/programs/genome-biology/spines">Broad Institute's</a> web site.<br> <br> An incomplete list of questions and answers (yes, these have really been asked by our users! Please feel free to add your own by e-mailing us) is <a href="http://satsuma.sourceforge.net/faq.html">here</a>.<br> <br> If you use Satsuma in your research, please cite:<br> <a href="http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/26/9/1145.long">Grabherr, M.

	<title><![CDATA[Linux command line exercises for NGS data processing]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce students to the frequently used tools for NGS analysis as well as giving experience in writing one-liners. Copy the required files to your current directory, change directory (<code>cd</code>) to the <code>linuxTutorial</code> folder, and do all the processing inside:</p>
<pre><span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/]$</span> cp -r /home/opt/MScBioinformatics/linuxTutorial .
<span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/]$</span> cd linuxTutorial
<span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/linuxTutorial]$</span>
</pre>
<p>I have deliberately chosen <code>Awk</code> in the exercises as it is a language in itself and is used more often to manipulate NGS data as compared to the other command line tools such as <code>grep</code>, <code>sed</code>, <code>perl</code> etc. Furthermore, having a command on <code>awk</code> will make it easier to understand advanced tutorials such as <a href="http://userweb.eng.gla.ac.uk/umer.ijaz/bioinformatics/Illumina_workflow.html">Illumina Amplicons Processing Workflow</a>. <br><br> In <code>Linux</code>, we use a shell that is a program that takes your commands from the keyboard and gives them to the operating system. Most Linux systems utilize Bourne Again SHell (<code>bash</code>), but there are several additional shell programs on a typical Linux system such as <code>ksh</code>, <code>tcsh</code>, and <code>zsh</code>. To see which shell you are using, type</p>
<pre><span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/linuxTutorial]$</span> echo $SHELL

<span>/bin/bash
</span></pre><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://userweb.eng.gla.ac.uk/umer.ijaz/bioinformatics/linux.html" rel="nofollow">http://userweb.eng.gla.ac.uk/umer.ijaz/bioinformatics/linux.html</a></p>]]></description>
