http://pythia.sourceforge.net/

Pythia is an open source thermodynamically oriented primer design python module. Pythia can be used in two ways. 1. Executable binaries only: under windows with cygwin and python 2.5 (built with mingw, that comes with the cygwin release). These executables allow the user to index DNA files for primer specificity search, design one primer pair per region, and tile regions with PCR amplicons. 2. A python module: under windows with cygwin, python2.5, numpy, swig, and mingw, or under linux with python2.4 or later, numpy, and swig (everything but numpy should be pre-installed on a normal linux system). The module gets you everything that the binaries get you, in a more pythonic framework. This package also includes modules for computing DNA binding and folding energies using the partition function approach with publicly available thermodynamic data. Usage documentation is in the downloads.

http://cortexassembler.sourceforge.net/index_cortex_var.html

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

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/amos/index.php?title=Bambus2

Software for scaffolding to address some of the challenges encountered when analyzing metagenomes. Scaffolding represents the task of ordering and orienting contigs by incorporating additional information about their relative placement along the genome. While most other scaffolders are closely tied to a specific assembly program, Bambus accepts the output from most current assemblers and provides the user with great flexibility in choosing the scaffolding parameters. In particular, Bambus is able to accept contig linking data other than specified by mate-pairs. Such sources of information include alignment to a reference genome (Bambus can directly use the output of MUMmer), physical mapping data, or information about gene synteny.

http://www.comp.hkbu.edu.hk/~chxw/software/G-BLASTN.html

A GPU-accelerated nucleotide alignment tool based on the widely used NCBI-BLAST. It can produce exactly the same results as NCBI-BLAST, and it also has very similar user commands. It also supports a pipeline mode, which can fully utilize the GPU and CPU resources when handling a batch of medium to large sized queries.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/viralfusionseq/

A versatile high-throughput sequencing (HTS) tool for discovering viral integration events and reconstruct fusion transcripts at single-base resolution. It combines soft-clipping information, read-pair analysis, and targeted de novo assembly to discover and annotate viral-human fusion events. A simple yet effective empirical statistical model is used to evaluate the quality of fusion breakpoints. Minimal user defined parameters are required.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/cova/

A variant annotation and comparison tool for next-generation sequencing. It annotates the effects of variants on genes and compares those among multiple samples, which helps to pinpoint causal variation(s) relating to phenotype.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/qure/

A software program for viral quasispecies reconstruction, specifically developed to analyze long read (>100 bp) next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. The software performs alignments of sequence fragments against a reference genome, finds an optimal division of the genome into sliding windows based on coverage and diversity and attempts to reconstruct all the individual sequences of the viral quasispecies--along with their prevalence--using a heuristic algorithm, which matches multinomial distributions of distinct viral variants overlapping across the genome division. QuRe comes with a built-in Poisson error correction method and a post-reconstruction probabilistic clustering, both parameterized on given error rates in homopolymeric and non-homopolymeric regions.

http://ergatis.sourceforge.net/

A web interface and scalable software system for bioinformatics workflows that is used to create, run, and monitor reusable computational analysis pipelines. It contains pre-built components for common bioinformatics analysis tasks. These components can be arranged graphically to form highly-configurable pipelines. Each analysis component supports multiple output formats, including the Bioinformatic Sequence Markup Language (BSML). The current implementation includes support for data loading into project databases following the CHADO schema, a highly normalized, community-supported schema for storage of biological annotation data. Ergatis uses the Workflow engine to process its work on a compute grid. Workflow provides an XML language and processing engine for specifying the steps of a computational pipeline. It provides detailed execution status and logging for process auditing, facilitates error recovery from point of failure, and is highly scalable with support for distributed computing environments. The XML format employed enables commands to be run serially, in parallel, and in any combination or nesting level.
