DeCoSTAR - Detection of Co-evolution

Jit — Fri, 14 Apr 2017 06:27:25 -0500

DeCoSTAR is a software which aims at reconstructing ancestral gene or genome organizations, in the form of sets of neighborhood relations -adjacencies- between pairs of ancestral genes or gene domains.
Ancestral genes or domains are deduced from reconciled gene trees in a context of birth, speciation, duplication, loss, transfer, which are either given as input or computed with the ecceTERA package, to which DeCoSTAR is integrated. DeCoSTAR constructs parsimonious scenarios of gains and breakages of adjacencies, and contains in particular all the features of previous software DeCo, DeCoLT, ArtDeCo and DeClone. It provides statistical supports on ancestral adjacencies, or the possibility to handle badly assembled genomes.
DeCoSTAR is able to reconstruct the histories of domains inside genes, including gene fusion and fission events, as well as ancestral genome structures for dozens of whole genomes from all kingdoms of life in a few minutes.

homologizer: Phylogenetic phasing of gene copies into polyploid subgenomes

Abhi — Sat, 03 Jun 2023 19:19:10 -0500

This tutorial describes the usage of homologizer to phase gene copies into polyploid subgenomes. The tutorial is an abbreviated version of a soon-to-be published paper in Methods in Molecular Biology. Please see that paper for many more details and practical considerations for running homologizer analyses. If you use homologizer, please cite the paper in which we first describe the method:

homologizer is implemented in RevBayes. Please see http://revbayes.com to download and install RevBayes. For users without previous RevBayes experience, we recommend the tutorials at http://revbayes.com.

Orthoflow: workflow for phylogenetic inference of genome-scale datasets of protein-coding genes

LEGE — Wed, 21 Feb 2024 06:13:08 -0600

Orthoflow is a workflow for phylogenetic inference of genome-scale datasets of protein-coding genes. Our goal was to make it straightforward to work from a combination of input sources including annotated contigs in Genbank format and FASTA files containing CDSs. It uses several state of the art inference methods for orthology inference, either based on HMM profiles or de novo inference of orthogroups. Through the use of OrthoSNAP, many additional ortholog alignments can be generated from multi-copy gene families. For phylogenetic inference, users can choose a supermatrix approach and/or gene tree inference followed by supertree reconstruction. Users can specify a range of alignment filtering settings to retain high-quality alignments for phylogenetic inference. The workflow produces a detailed report that, in addition to the phylogenetic results, includes a range of diagnostics to verify the quality of the results.

WEGO : simple but useful tool for visualizing, comparing and plotting GO (Gene Ontology) annotation results

BioStar — Sun, 12 Apr 2020 10:02:22 -0500

WEGO (Web Gene Ontology Annotation Plot) is a simple but useful tool for visualizing, comparing and plotting GO (Gene Ontology) annotation results. As the GO vocabulary became more and more popular, WEGO was widely adopted and used in many researches. Therefore we have updated WEGO 2.0 in 2018. Here are some changes we’ve made:
1. The limit of input file numbers was cancelled. Now the users could upload as many files as they want with one operation.
2. We have added the reference data of 9 species for users selection.
3. Besides the traditional WEGO histogram, WEGO 2.0 outputs an additional type of bar graph showing GO terms with significant gene number differences.

KOBAS: a web server for gene/protein functional annotation and functional gene set enrichment

Jit — Fri, 19 Oct 2018 09:36:11 -0500

KOBAS 3.0 is a web server for gene/protein functional annotation (Annotate module) and functional gene set enrichment(Enrichment module). For Annotate module, it accepts gene list as input, including IDs or sequences, and generates annotations for each gene based on multiple databases about pathways, diseases, and Gene Ontology. For Enrichment module, it can accept either gene list or gene expression data as input, and generates enriched gene sets, corresponding name, p-value or a probability of enrichment and enrichment score based on results of multiple methods.

alienness : Rapid Detection of Candidate Horizontal Gene Transfers across the Tree of Life

Jit — Mon, 12 Mar 2018 09:24:40 -0500

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is the transmission of genes between organisms by other means than parental to offspring inheritance. While it is prevalent in prokaryotes, HGT is less frequent in eukaryotes and particularly in Metazoa. Here, we propose Alienness, a taxonomy-aware web application available at http://alienness.sophia.inra.fr

kSNP3.0: SNP detection and phylogenetic analysis of genomes without genome alignment or reference genome

Jit — Fri, 08 Dec 2017 16:48:40 -0600

Sept. 20, 2017 Version 3.1 released. Major upgrade. Version 3.1 fixes the problems with SNP annotation that arose when NCBI discontinued use of GI numbers. Please read carefully the Preface (page 3) and the File of annotated genomes section (pages 9-10) in the version 3.1 User Guide. Thanks to Tom Slezak for revsing the get_genbank_file3 script and to Tod Stuber (USDA) for testing version 3.1 even though he doesn't need the annotation feature. All users are encouraged to upgrade to version 3.1.
