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...

github.com - A JavaScript module for the visualization of genomic sequence graphs. It automatically generates a "tube map"-like visualization of sequence graphs which have been created with vg. (https://github.com/vgteam/vg) Link to working demo:...

academic.oup.com - With a large number of metagenomic datasets becoming available, eukaryotic metagenomics emerged as a new challenge. The proper classification of eukaryotic nuclear and organellar genomes is an essential step toward a better understanding of...

The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) is a powerful bioinformatics program used to compare an input sequence (such as DNA, RNA, or protein sequences) against a database of sequences to find regions of similarity.

github.com - Scallop is an accurate reference-based transcript assembler. Scallop features its high accuracy in assembling multi-exon transcripts as well as lowly expressed transcripts. Scallop achieves this improvement through a novel algorithm that can be...

biosciences.hs-mittweida.de - Protein structures are of varying quality. Especially, in-silico modeled structures are prone to contain serious errors, which limit the usefulness and reliability of these particular protein structures.eQuant is a service for structure...

Only 4.4 percent DNA difference between Tiger and house cats

sourceforge.net - Opera (Optimal Paired-End Read Assembler) is a sequence assembly program (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_assembly ). It uses information from paired-end or long reads to optimally order and orient contigs assembled from...

When you have both Illumina and Nanopore data, then SPAdes remains a good option for hybrid assembly - SPAdes was used to produce the B fragilis assembly by Mick Watson’s group. Again, running spades.py will show you the...

ftp.genomics.org.cn - An efficient tool called Connecting Overlapped Pair-End (COPE) reads, to connect overlapping pair-end reads using k-mer frequencies. We evaluated our tool on 30× simulated pair-end reads from Arabidopsis thaliana with 1% base error. COPE...
