Genome Trax Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Genome Trax (RRID:SCR_001234) | Genome Trax | service resource | 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. | next-generation sequencing, genome, exome, sequence, variation, mutation, pathogenic, database, bio.tools, bio.tools |

cortex var Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
cortex var (RRID:SCR_005081) | cortex_var | software resource | A tool for genome assembly and variation analysis from sequence data. You can use it to discover and genotype variants on single or multiple haploid or diploid samples. If you have multiple samples, you can use Cortex to look specifically for variants that distinguish one set of samples (eg phenotype=X, cases, parents, tumour) from another set of samples (eg phenotype=Y, controls, child, normal). cortex_var features * Variant discovery by de novo assembly - no reference genome required * Supports multicoloured de Bruijn graphs - have multiple samples loaded into the same graph in different colours, and find variants that distinguish them. * Capable of calling SNPs, indels, inversions, complex variants, small haplotypes * Extremely accurate variant calling - see our paper for base-pair-resolution validation of entire alleles (rather than just breakpoints) of SNPs, indels and complex variants by comparison with fully sequenced (and finished) fosmids - a level of validation beyond that demanded of any other variant caller we are aware of - currently cortex_var is the most accurate variant caller for indels and complex variants. * Capable of aligning a reference genome to a graph and using that to call variants * Support for comparing cases/controls or phenotyped strains * Typical memory use: 1 high coverage human in under 80Gb of RAM, 1000 yeasts in under 64Gb RAM, 10 humans in under 256 Gb RAM | genome assembly, variation analysis, sequence, variation, genotype variant, haploid, diploid, snp, indel, inversion, variant, haplotype, de novo assembly, genotyping, variant-calling, population analysis, population assembly |

RetroSeq Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
RetroSeq (RRID:SCR_005133) | RetroSeq | software resource | A tool for discovery and genotyping of transposable element variants (TEVs) (also known as mobile element insertions) from next-gen sequencing reads aligned to a reference genome in BAM format. The goal is to call TEVs that are not present in the reference genome but present in the sample that has been sequenced. It should be noted that RetroSeq can be used to locate any class of viral insertion in any species where whole-genome sequencing data with a suitable reference genome is available. RetroSeq is a two phase process, the first being the read pair discovery phase where discorandant mate pairs are detected and assigned to a TE class (Alu, SINE, LINE, etc.) by using either the annotated TE elements in the reference and/or aligned with Exonerate to the supplied library of viral sequences. | mobile element insertion, next-gen sequencing, bam, transposable element, genome, sequence |

BioExtract Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
BioExtract (RRID:SCR_005397) | BioExtract | service resource | An open, web-based system designed to aid researchers in the analysis of genomic data by providing a platform for the creation of bioinformatic workflows. Scientific workflows are created within the system by recording tasks performed by the user. These tasks may include querying multiple, distributed data sources, saving query results as searchable data extracts, and executing local and web-accessible analytic tools. The series of recorded tasks can then be saved as a reproducible, sharable workflow available for subsequent execution with the original or modified inputs and parameter settings. Integrated data resources include interfaces to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) nucleotide and protein databases, the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL-Bank) non-redundant nucleotide database, the Universal Protein Resource (UniProt), and the UniProt Reference Clusters (UniRef) database. The system offers access to numerous preinstalled, curated analytic tools and also provides researchers with the option of selecting computational tools from a large list of web services including the European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite (EMBOSS), BioMoby, and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). The system further allows users to integrate local command line tools residing on their own computers through a client-side Java applet. | nucleotide sequence, protein sequence, viridiplantae, viridiplantae protein, nucleotide, sequence, protein, viridiplantae, workflow, software, database, bioinformatics, platform, genome, genomic analysis, analytic tool |

FaBox Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
FaBox (RRID:SCR_005350) | FaBox | software resource | Tools for splitting, joining and otherwise manipulating FASTA format sequence files. The first tools in the toolbox is for manipulating fasta headers, cropping alignments and doing some sequence comparison allowing users to combine the description of data (often in excel spreadsheets) with the actual data (often DNA sequences). Also, producing correct input files for a range of programs seems to be problematic for the average user. Hence, some converters in some of the services have been included as well as some stand-alone converters. The converters are not necessarily meant to provide the final input file, but you''ll get a valid input file for Arlequin, MrBayes etc. - that you may further edit so it suit your needs. This means that you may need to combine several of the tools to finish your handling - but it keeps it relatively simple to use. Please note that FaBox is written in PHP and ONLY RUNS ON A WEBSERVER. | fasta, dna, protein sequence, dna sequence, protein, sequence, php |
