MolProbity Resource Report Resource Website 5000+ mentions |
MolProbity (RRID:SCR_014226) | software resource, web application | A structure-validation web application which provides an expert-system consultation about the accuracy of a macromolecular structure model, diagnosing local problems and enabling their correction. MolProbity works best as an active validation tool (used as soon as a model is available and during each rebuild/refine loop) and when used for protein and RNA crystal structures, but it may also work well for DNA, ligands and NMR ensembles. It produces coordinates, graphics, and numerical evaluations that integrate with either manual or automated use in systems such as PHENIX, KiNG, or Coot. | web application, consultation, macromolecular structure, structure validation, macromolecular crystallography |

Strelka Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
Strelka (RRID:SCR_005109) | Strelka | software resource, commercial organization | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 7,2024. Software for somatic single nucleotide variant (SNV) and small indel detection from sequencing data of matched tumor-normal samples. The method employs a novel Bayesian approach which represents continuous allele frequencies for both tumor and normal samples, whilst leveraging the expected genotype structure of the normal. This is achieved by representing the normal sample as a mixture of germline variation with noise, and representing the tumor sample as a mixture of the normal sample with somatic variation. A natural consequence of the model structure is that sensitivity can be maintained at high tumor impurity without requiring purity estimates. The method has superior accuracy and sensitivity on impure samples compared to approaches based on either diploid genotype likelihoods or general allele-frequency tests. | single nucleotide variant, indel, somatic snv, next-generation sequencing, bio.tools |
