http://pathology.wustl.edu/VirusHunter/

A fully automated and modular software package for mining sequence data to identify sequences of microbial origin. The pipeline was optimized for analysis of data generated by the Roche/454 next-generation sequencing platform but can be applied to longer sequences (Sanger sequencing data or assembled contigs) as well. Microbial sequences are identified on the basis of BLAST alignments and the taxonomic classification of the reference sequence(s) to which a read is aligned. Viruses are the focal point of VirusHunter as released, but it can be easily modified to generate parallel outputs for bacterial or parasitic species. To date, VirusHunter has been applied to thousands of specimens, including human, animal and environmental samples, resulting in the detection of many known and novel viruses.

http://www.biobase-international.com/product/genome-trax

Service that provides a comprehensive compilation of variant knowledge that allows you to identify pathogenic variants in human whole genome or exome sequences. It makes it easy to upload a complete genome?s worth of variations and identify the biologically relevant subset of known mutations, mutations that are novel and appear in a candidate disease genes, or mutations that are predicted to have a deleterious effect. The database includes a comprehensive collection of disease causing mutations from HGMD Professional, regulatory sites from TRANSFAC , and disease genes, drug targets and pathways from PROTEOME, as well as pharmacogenomic variants. It integrates the best public data-sets on somatic mutations, allele frequencies and clinical variants, in their most up-to-date version, for a total of more than 165 million annotations. It is possible to identify known pathogenic variants, remove harmless common variants, and obtain deleterious predictions for novel variants. With family data, it is possible to identify variants that are de novo, compound heterozygous only in the offspring. All of the results can be downloaded to Excel for further review. For core facilities and bioinformaticians, the complete underlying data is made available for download and easy integration into custom analysis pipelines. Genome Trax data is optimized to work with many other software packages, such as ANNOVARTM, CLC bio, Alamut, SimulConsult, and Cartagenia.

https://www.bioconductor.org/packages//2.12/bioc/html/dexus.html

Software package that identifies differentially expressed genes in RNA-Seq data under all possible study designs such as studies without replicates, without sample groups, and with unknown conditions. It works also for known conditions, for example for RNA-Seq data with two or multiple conditions. RNA-Seq read count data can be provided both by the S4 class Count Data Set and by read count matrices. Differentially expressed transcripts can be visualized by heatmaps, in which unknown conditions, replicates, and samples groups are also indicated. This software is fast since the core algorithm is written in C. For very large data sets, a parallel version of DEXUS is provided in this package. DEXUS is a statistical model that is selected in a Bayesian framework by an EM algorithm. It does not need replicates to detect differentially expressed transcripts, since the replicates (or conditions) are estimated by the EM method for each transcript. The method provides an informative/non-informative value to extract differentially expressed transcripts at a desired significance level or power.

http://octresearch.org/

Biomedical technology research center that pioneers and provides access to microscopic imaging instruments for biologic and clinical research. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has evolved over the last two decades to become a standard of care for diagnostic ophthalmic imaging and is poised to make significant impact in the fields of cardiology and gastrointestinal endoscopy. Access to state-of-the-art instrumentation, however, has been limited to a relatively few research laboratories and the optimization of instruments for new biomedical applications has hindered the investigation of new opportunities. A major focus of CBORT will be to cultivate strategic research collaborations and respond to a pressing need for application-specific OCT instrumentation and hardware.

http://gmod.org/wiki/Flash_GViewer

Flash GViewer is a customizable Flash movie that can be easily inserted into a web page to display each chromosome in a genome along with the locations of individual features on the chromosomes. It is intended to provide an overview of the genomic locations of a specific set of features - eg. genes and QTLs associated with a specific phenotype, etc. rather than as a way to view all features on the genome. The features can hyperlink out to a detail page to enable to GViewer to be used as a navigation tool. In addition the bands on the chromosomes can link to defineable URL and new region selection sliders can be used to select a specific chromosome region and then link out to a genome browser for higher resolution information. Genome maps for Rat, Mouse, Human and C. elegans are provided but other genome maps can be easily created. Annotation data can be provided as static text files or produced as XML via server scripts. This tool is not GO-specific, but was built for the purpose of viewing GO annotation data. Platform: Online tool

http://www.nactem.ac.uk/GREC/

A semantically annotated corpus of 240 MEDLINE abstracts (167 on the subject of E. coli species and 73 on the subject of the Human species) intended for training information extraction (IE) systems and/or resources which are used to extract events from biomedical literature. The corpus has been manually annotated with events relating to gene regulation by biologists. Each event is centered on either a verb (e.g. transcribe) or nominalized verb (e.g. transcription) and annotation consists of identifying, as exhaustively as possible, the structurally-related arguments of the verb or nominalized verb within the same sentence. Each event argument is then assigned the following information: * A semantic role from a fixed set of 13 roles which are tailored to the biomedical domain. * A biomedical concept type (where appropriate). The corpus in available for download in 2 formats: * A standoff format, based on the BioNLP'09 Shared Task format * An XML format, based on the GENIA event annotation format

http://www.innatedb.com

Publicly available database of the genes, proteins, experimentally-verified interactions and signaling pathways involved in the innate immune response of humans, mice and bovines to microbial infection. The database captures coverage of the innate immunity interactome by integrating known interactions and pathways from major public databases together with manually-curated data into a centralized resource. The database can be mined as a knowledgebase or used with the integrated bioinformatics and visualization tools for the systems level analysis of the innate immune response. Although InnateDB curation focuses on innate immunity-relevant interactions and pathways, it also incorporates detailed annotation on the entire human, mouse and bovine interactomes by integrating data (178,000+ interactions & 3,900+ pathways) from several of the major public interaction and pathway databases. InnateDB also has integrated human, mouse and bovine orthology predictions generated using Ortholgue software. Ortholgue uses a phylogenetic distance-based method to identify possible paralogs in high-throughput orthology predictions. Integrated human and mouse conserved gene order and synteny information has also been determined to provide further support for orthology predictions. InnateDB Capabilities: * View statistics for manually-curated innate immunity relevant molecular interactions. New manually curated interactions are submitted weekly. * Search for genes and proteins of interest. * Search for experimentally-verified molecular interactions by gene/protein name, interaction type, cell type, etc. * Search genes/interactions belonging to 3,900 pathways. * Visualize interactions using an intuitive subcellular localization-based layout in Cerebral. * Upload your own list of genes along with associated gene expression data (from up to 10 experimental conditions) to interactively analyze this data in a molecular interaction network context. Once you have uploaded your data, you will be able to interactively visualize interaction networks with expression data overlaid; carry out Pathway, Gene Ontology and Transcription Factor Binding Site over-representation analyses; construct orthologous interaction networks in other species; and much more. * Access curated interaction data via a dedicated PSICQUIC webservice.
