https://github.com/TransDecoder/TransDecoder

Software tool to identify candidate coding regions within transcript sequences, such as those generated by de novo RNA-Seq transcript assembly using Trinity, or constructed based on RNA-Seq alignments to genome using Tophat and Cufflinks.Starts from FASTA or GFF file. Can scan and retain open reading frames (ORFs) for homology to known proteins by using BlastP or Pfam search and incorporate results into obtained selection. Predictions can then be visualized by using genome browser such as IGV.

https://www.sanger.ac.uk/science/tools/reapr

Software tool to identify errors in genome assemblies without need for reference sequence. Can be used in any stage of assembly pipeline to automatically break incorrect scaffolds and flag other errors in assembly for manual inspection. Reports mis-assemblies and other warnings, and produces new broken assembly based on error calls.

http://www.glycosciences.de/tools/linucs/

Service that directly converts the commonly used extended representation of complex carbohydrates into the preferred canonical description or into its inverted form. Input: A structure using the extended, non-graphic nomenclature (in ASCII writing) to describe complex carbohydrates as recommended by IUPAC. Output: A linear, unique notation. The source code (written in C), will be distributed so that software developers can easily implement their algorithm within their own application. LINUCS was chosen to fulfill to following conditions: * Input of extended, non-graphic nomenclature to describe carbohydrate structures. * Resulting linear code is closely related to notations and abbreviations recommended by IUPAC. * Number of additional rules to define the priority of the branches is low * Extended nomenclature of complex carbohydrates contains all information to define the hierarchy. * LINUCS is applicable to all types of carbohydrates (macrocyclic system are currently not implemented) . * Remaining unassigned linkage information are tolerated

https://github.com/davidemms/OrthoFinder

Software Python application for comparative genomics analysis. Finds orthogroups and orthologs, infers rooted gene trees for all orthogroups and identifies all of gene duplcation events in those gene trees, infers rooted species tree for species being analysed and maps gene duplication events from gene trees to branches in species tree, improves orthogroup inference accuracy. Runs set of protein sequence files, one per species, in FASTA format.
