http://compbio.bccrc.ca/software/mutationseq/

A software suite using feature-based classifiers for somatic mutation prediction from paired tumour/normal next-generation sequencing data. mutationSeq has the advantages of integrating different features (e.g., base qualities, mapping qualities, strand bias, and tailed distance features), and validated somatic mutations to make predictions. Given paired normal/tumour bam files, mutationSeq will output the probability of each candidate site being somatic.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.12/bioc/html/RIPSeeker.html

A statistical software package for identifying protein-associated transcripts from RIP-seq experiments. Infer and discriminate RIP peaks from RIP-seq alignments using two-state HMM with negative binomial emission probability. While RIPSeeker is specifically tailored for RIP-seq data analysis, it also provides a suite of bioinformatics tools integrated within this self-contained software package comprehensively addressing issues ranging from post-alignments processing to visualization and annotation.

http://www.ensemblgenomes.org/

Database portal offering integrated access to genome-scale data from non-vertebrate species of scientific interest, developed using the Ensembl genome annotation and visualization platform. Ensembl Genomes consists of five sub-portals (for bacteria, protists, fungi, plants and invertebrate metazoa) designed to complement the availability of vertebrate genomes in Ensembl. Many of the databases supporting the portal have been built in close collaboration with the scientific community - essential for maintaining the accuracy and usefulness of the resource. A common set of user interfaces (which include a graphical genome browser, FTP, BLAST search, a query optimized data warehouse, programmatic access, and a Perl API) is provided for all domains. Data types incorporated include annotation of (protein and non-protein coding) genes, cross references to external resources, and high throughput experimental data (e.g. data from large scale studies of gene expression and polymorphism visualized in their genomic context). Additionally, extensive comparative analysis has been performed, both within defined clades and across the wider taxonomy, and sequence alignments and gene trees resulting from this can be accessed through the site.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/qudaich/

A software package for local sequence alignment for next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. It generates the pairwise local alignments between a query dataset against a database. The main design purpose of qudaich is to focus on datasets from next generation sequencing. These the datasets generally have hundreds of thousand sequences or more, and so, the input database should contain large number of sequences. Qudaich is flexible and its algorithmic structure imposes no restriction on the absolute limit of the acceptable read length, but the current version of qudaich allow read length <2000 bp. Qudaich can be used to align DNA, translated DNA and protein sequences.

http://compbio.bccrc.ca/software/jointsnvmix/

Software that implements a probabilistic graphical model to analyze sequence data from tumor / normal pairs. The model draws statistical strength by analysing both genome jointly to more accurately classify germline and somatic mutations. It effectively reduces false positive somatic mutation predictions in tumour-normal pair sequencing data. It is highly recommended to post-process results with mutationSeq in order to filter technical artifacts.

https://github.com/friend1ws/EBCall

A software package for somatic mutation detection (including InDels). EBCall uses not only paired tumor/normal sequence data of a target sample, but also multiple non-paired normal reference samples for evaluating distribution of sequencing errors, which leads to an accurate mutaiton detection even in case of low sequencing depths and low allele frequencies.

http://www.seqan.de/projects/razers/

A read mapping software program with adjustable sensitivity based on counting q-grams. RazerS 3 supports shared-memory parallelism, an additional seed-based filter with adjustable sensitivity, a much faster, banded version of the Myers? bit-vector algorithm for verification, memory saving measures and support for the SAM output format. This leads to a much improved performance for mapping reads, in particular long reads with many errors.

http://seqbarracuda.sourceforge.net/

A sequence mapping software that utilizes the massive parallelism of graphics processing units to accelerate the inexact alignment of short sequence reads to a particular location on a reference genome. It can align a paired-end library containing 14 million pairs of 76bp reads to the Human genome in about 27 minutes (from fastq files to SAM alignment) using a ��380 NVIDIA Geforce GTX 680*. The alignment throughput can be boosted further by using multiple GPUs (up to 8) at the same time. Being based on BWA (http://bio-bwa.sf.net) from the Sanger Institute, BarraCUDA delivers a high level of alignment fidelity and is comparable to other mainstream alignment programs. It can perform gapped alignment with gap extensions, in order to minimise the number of false variant calls in re-sequencing studies.

http://code.google.com/p/crop-tingchenlab/

A clustering tool designed mainly for Metagenomics studies, which clusters 16S rRNA sequences into Operational Taxonomic Units (OTU). By using a Gaussian Mixture model, CROP can automatically determine the best clustering result for 16S rRNA sequences at different phylogenetic levels without setting a hard cutoff threshold as hierarchical clustering does. Yet, at the same time, it is able to manage large datasets and to overcome sequencing errors.

http://bowtie-bio.sourceforge.net/myrna/index.shtml

A cloud computing tool for calculating differential gene expression in large RNA-seq datasets. It uses Bowtie for short read alignment and R/Bioconductor for interval calculations, normalization, and statistical testing. These tools are combined in an automatic, parallel pipeline that runs in the cloud (Elastic MapReduce in this case) on a local Hadoop cluster, or on a single computer, exploiting multiple computers and CPUs wherever possible.

http://medgen.ugent.be/rtprimerdb/

Database for primer and probe sequences used in real-time PCR assays employing popular chemistries (SYBR Green I, Taqman, Hybridization Probes, Molecular Beacon) to prevent time-consuming primer design and experimental optimization, and to introduce a certain level of uniformity and standardization among different laboratories. Researchers are encouraged to submit their validated primer and probe sequence, so that other users can benefit from their expertise. The database can be queried using the official gene name or symbol, Entrez or Ensembl Gene identifier, SNP identifier, or oligonucleotide sequence. Different options make it possible to restrict a query to a particular application (Gene Expression Quantification/Detection, DNA Copy Number Quantification/Detection, SNP Detection, Mutation Analysis, Fusion Gene Quantification/Detection, Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)), organism (Human, Mouse, Rat, and others) or detection chemistry.
