http://pathema.jcvi.org/Pathema/index.html

Pathema is one of the eight Bioinformatics Resource Centers designed to serve as a core resource for the bio-defense and infectious disease research community. Pathema strives to support basic research and accelerate scientific progress for understanding, detecting, diagnosing and treating an established set of six target NIAID Category A-C pathogens: Category A priority pathogens; Bacillus anthracis and Clostridium botulinum, and Category B priority pathogens; Burkholderia mallei, Burkholderia pseudomallei, Clostridium perfringens and Entamoeba histolytica. Each target pathogen is represented in one of four distinct clade-specific Pathema web resources and underlying databases developed to target the specific data and analysis needs of each scientific community. All publicly available complete genome projects of phylogenetically related organisms are also represented, providing a comprehensive collection of organisms for comparative analyses. Pathema facilitates the scientific exploration of genomic and related data through its integration with web-based analysis tools, customized to obtain, display, and compute results relevant to ongoing pathogen research. Pathema serves the bio-defense and infectious disease research community by disseminating data resulting from pathogen genome sequencing projects and providing access to the results of inter-genomic comparisons for these organisms. The Pathema BRC contract ends in December 2009. At that time JCVI will cease maintenance of the Pathema web resource and data. The PATRIC team, located at the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute, created and maintains a consolidated BRC for all of the NIAID category A-C priority pathogenic bacteria. The EuPathDB team at the University of Pennsylvania will support all eukaryotic pathogens. Pathema transferred all data and software to PATRIC and EuPathDB for incorporation into their new Web-based bioinformatics resource.

http://www.bcgsc.ca/platform/bioinfo/software/abyss

Software providing de novo, parallel, paired-end sequence assembler that is designed for short reads. ABySS 1.0 originally showed that assembling human genome using short 50 bp sequencing reads was possible by aggregating half terabyte of compute memory needed over several computers using standardized message passing system. ABySS 2.0 is Resource Efficient Assembly of Large Genomes using Bloom Filter. ABySS 2.0 departs from MPI and instead implements algorithms that employ Bloom filter, probabilistic data structure, to represent de Bruijn graph and reduce memory requirements.

http://icy.bioimageanalysis.org/

An open community platform for bioimage informatics providing the software resources to visualize, annotate and quantify bioimaging data. To bridge the gap between developers and users, it combines: a) an open-source image analysis software, offering a powerful and flexible environment for developers such as applied mathematicians to write algorithms fast and efficiently; b) a common set of tools to view and manipulate data, and a set of plugins to perform specific quantification or analysis on images; c) a community-based website centralizing all plugins and resources to facilitate their management and maximize their visibility towards users. Workspaces are virtual groups of plugins dedicated to a specific application or image processing domain. By downloading a workspace, ICY automatically installs all corresponding plugins. The workspaces are enabled, but the editing section is not ready yet. If you want to publish a plugin on this website, its code has to be GPL. Source code is available and provided in each application download.

http://www.ch.embnet.org/software/COILS_form.html

COILS is a program that compares a sequence to a database of known parallel two-stranded coiled-coils and derives a similarity score. By comparing this score to the distribution of scores in globular and coiled-coil proteins, the program then calculates the probability that the sequence will adopt a coiled-coil conformation.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/gsa-snp/

A tool for the gene-set (or pathway) analysis of a genome-wide association study result. It accepts a genome-wide list of SNPs and their association P-values. It summarizes the SNP P-values into nearby genes. The gene-by-gene summary results are then further summarized by gene-sets such as Gene Ontology, KEGG pathways, or user-created gene-sets. Various standardization and statistical tests can be performed and the resulting gene-sets that pass a significance level after multiple-testing correction are reported. The tool is written in Java and is available as a standalone version.
