A web server that predicts the functional impact of amino-acid substitutions in proteins, such as mutations discovered in cancer or nonsynonymous polymorphisms. The functional impact is assessed based on evolutionary conservation of the affected amino acid in protein homologs. The method has been validated on a large set (51k) of disease associated (OMIM) and polymorphic variants., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. It predicts nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins from all eukaryotic species including plants. Prediction is based on the occurrence patterns of Pfam domains (version 16.0) in different cellular locations, amino acid composition and pI value differences between mitochondrial and non-mitochondrial locations. Additionally, you may download MITOPRED predictions for complete proteomes. Re-calculated predictions are instantly accessible for proteomes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila, Homo sapiens, Mus musculus and Arabidopsis species as well as all the eukaryotic sequences in the Swiss-Prot and TrEMBL databases. Queries, at different confidence levels, can be made through four distinct options: (i) entering Swiss-Prot/TrEMBL accession numbers; (ii) uploading a local file with such accession numbers; (iii) entering protein sequences; (iv) uploading a local file containing protein sequences in FASTA format. The Mitopred algorithm works based on the differences in the Pfam domain occurrence patters and amino acid composition differences in different cellular compartments. Location specific Pfam domains have been determined from the entire eukaryotic set of Swissprot database. Similarly, differences in the amino acid composition between mitochondrial and non-mitochondrial sequences were pre-calculated. This information is used to calculate location-specific amino acid weights that are used to calculate amino acid score. Similarly, pI average values of the N-terminal 25 residues in different cellular location were also determined. This knowledge-base is accessed by the program during execution.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 7,2024. Software for somatic single nucleotide variant (SNV) and small indel detection from sequencing data of matched tumor-normal samples. The method employs a novel Bayesian approach which represents continuous allele frequencies for both tumor and normal samples, whilst leveraging the expected genotype structure of the normal. This is achieved by representing the normal sample as a mixture of germline variation with noise, and representing the tumor sample as a mixture of the normal sample with somatic variation. A natural consequence of the model structure is that sensitivity can be maintained at high tumor impurity without requiring purity estimates. The method has superior accuracy and sensitivity on impure samples compared to approaches based on either diploid genotype likelihoods or general allele-frequency tests.

A set of simulation tools to generate synthetic next-generation sequencing reads. ART simulates sequencing reads by mimicking real sequencing process with empirical error models or quality profiles summarized from large recalibrated sequencing data. ART can also simulate reads using user own read error model or quality profiles. ART supports simulation of single-end, paired-end/mate-pair reads of three major commercial next-generation sequencing platforms: Illumina''''s Solexa, Roche''''s 454 and Applied Biosystems'''' SOLiD. ART can be used to test or benchmark a variety of method or tools for next-generation sequencing data analysis, including read alignment, de novo assembly, SNP and structure variation discovery. ART is implemented in C++ with optimized algorithms and is highly efficient in read simulation. ART outputs reads in the FASTQ format, and alignments in the ALN format. ART can also generate alignments in the SAM alignment or UCSC BED file format.
