MOSS: A System for Detecting Software Similarity

Jit — Sat, 09 Dec 2017 08:59:07 -0600

Moss (for a Measure Of Software Similarity) is an automatic system for determining the similarity of programs. To date, the main application of Moss has been in detecting plagiarism in programming classes. Since its development in 1994, Moss has been very effective in this role. The algorithm behind moss is a significant improvement over other cheating detection algorithms (at least, over those known to us).

Moss can currently analyze code written in the following languages:

C, C++, Java, C#, Python, Visual Basic, Javascript, FORTRAN, ML, Haskell, Lisp, Scheme, Pascal, Modula2, Ada, Perl, TCL, Matlab, VHDL, Verilog, Spice, MIPS assembly, a8086 assembly, a8086 assembly, MIPS assembly, HCL2.

Tools and Method for Haplotype phasing !

Manisha Mishra — Fri, 04 Sep 2020 20:41:40 -0500

Huge amounts of genotype data are being produced with recent technological advances, both from increasingly comprehensive and inexpensive genome-wide SNP microarrays and from ever more accessible whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing methods. The vast amount of knowledge contained in these results, however, is best exploited through phased haplotypes, which classify the alleles co-located on the same chromosome. Since sequence and SNP array data normally take the form of unphased genotypes, one does not specifically observe which of the two parental chromosomes, or haplotypes, falls on a specific allele. Fortunately, new advances in both computational and laboratory methods promise improved determination of haplotype phase. Following are useful tools :

Our group works on various problems connected with the functioning and evolution of biological systems. We use mathematical tools, coming from statistics and combinatorics, algorithmic tools and molecular physics tools to study basic principles of cellular functioning starting from genomic data. We run several projects in parallel, all aiming at understanding the basic principles of evolution and co-evolution of molecular structures in the cell. They are intimately linked to each other.

Our main research themes are:

Domain annotation and metagenomics
Transcriptomics and sequence analysis
Protein evolution and interactions
Protein conformational dynamics

Protein-Protein Interaction Sites Predictions !

Poonam Mahapatra — Wed, 25 Apr 2018 04:53:20 -0500

The study of Protein–Protein Interactions (PPIs) has a crucial role in biology, medicine and the pharmaceutical industry. PPIs can be investigated from two aspects: The interaction partners of a specific protein and the amino acid residues participating in a given PPI. Information about a protein’s interaction partners allows scientists to construct protein interaction networks, such as signaling pathways, which in turn facilitate the understanding of many biological and clinical observations.

Following are the list of tools commonly used to PPIs predictions:

Protein-Protein Interaction Sites

PPISP

A consensus neural network method for predicting protein-protein interaction sites

HOMCOS

A server to predict interacting protein pairs and interacting sites by homology modeling of complex structures

HotPOINT

Prediction of protein interfaces using an empirical model

ISIS

Prediction of interaction hotspots from sequence

KFC server

Automated decision-tree approach to predicting protein-protein interaction hot spots

meta-PPISP

A meta server for predicting protein-protein interaction sites. meta-PPISP is built on three individual web servers: cons-PPISP, PINUP, and Promate

ODA

Identification of optimal surface patches with the lowest docking desolvation energy values

PINUP

Protein binding site prediction with an empirical scoring function

Other Sites (DNA, RNA, Metals)

CHED

Web server for predicting soft metal binding sites in proteins

DBD-Hunter

A knowledge-based method for the prediction of DNA-protein interactions

DISPLAR

Given the structure of a protein known to bind DNA, the method predicts residues that contact DNA using neural network method

iDBPs

Predicts DNA binding proteins for proteins with known 3D structure.

PFplus

A tool for extracting and displaying positive electrostatic patches on protein surfaces which can be indicative of nucleic acid binding interfaces.

MITObim - mitochondrial baiting and iterative mapping

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 08 May 2018 04:15:25 -0500

This document contains instructions on how to use the MITObim pipeline described in Hahn et al. 2013. The full article can be found here. Kindly cite the article if you are using MITObim in your work. The pipeline was originally developed for Illumina data, but thanks to the versatility of the MIRA assembler, MITObim supports in principle also data from the Iontorrent, 454 and PacBio sequencing platforms.

Below you can find a few basic tutorials for how to run MITObim and I encorage you to give them a try with the testdata that comes with this Repo, just to make sure everything is running smoothly on your system. It'll only take a few minutes and will potentially safe you a lot of time down the line.

I provide further examples here as Jupyter notebooks. Get in touch if you feel like sharing your particular MITObim solution and I'd be happy to put it up here, too!
