http://www.broadinstitute.org/science/programs/genome-biology/computational-rd/vaal-manual

A polymorphism discovery algorithm for short reads. To run it, you provide reads (and quality scores) from a "sample genome" as input, along with a vector sequence to trim from the reads, and a reference sequence for a related genome to compare to. VAAL produces as output a an assembly for the sample genome, together with a mask showing which bases are "trusted". It then deduces from that a list of differences between the sample and related genomes. Alternatively, it can be provided as input read data for two sample genomes, together with a reference sequence for a related genome. In this case, VAAL produces assemblies for each of the sample genomes, and compares them to each other, thereby deducing a list of differences between them. VAAL has been tested on bacteria, using single lanes of 36 bp unpaired reads from the Illumina platform. Note: This software package is no longer supported and information on this page is provided for archival purposes only.

http://www.patricbrc.org/portal/portal/patric/Home

A Bioinformatics Resource Center bacterial bioinformatics database and analysis resource that provides researchers with an online resource that stores and integrates a variety of data types (e.g. genomics, transcriptomics, protein-protein interactions (PPIs), three-dimensional protein structures and sequence typing data) and associated metadata. Datatypes are summarized for individual genomes and across taxonomic levels. All genomes, currently more than 10 000, are consistently annotated using RAST, the Rapid Annotations using Subsystems Technology. Summaries of different data types are also provided for individual genes, where comparisons of different annotations are available, and also include available transcriptomic data. PATRIC provides a variety of ways for researchers to find data of interest and a private workspace where they can store both genomic and gene associations, and their own private data. Both private and public data can be analyzed together using a suite of tools to perform comparative genomic or transcriptomic analysis. PATRIC also includes integrated information related to disease and PPIs. The PATRIC project includes three primary collaborators: the University of Chicago, the University of Manchester, and New City Media. The University of Chicago is providing genome annotations and a PATRIC end-user genome annotation service using their Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology (RAST) system. The National Centre for Text Mining (NaCTeM) at the University of Manchester is providing literature-based text mining capability and service. New City Media is providing assistance in website interface development. An FTP server and download tool are available.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/taxonomy/

Database for a curated classification and nomenclature that contains the names of all organisms that are represented in the public sequence databases with at least one nucleotide or protein sequence. Data provided encompasses archaea, bacteria, eukaryota, viroids and viruses. The NCBI taxonomy database is not a primary source for taxonomic or phylogenetic information. Furthermore, the database does not follow a single taxonomic treatise but rather attempts to incorporate phylogenetic and taxonomic knowledge from a variety of sources, including the published literature, web-based databases, and the advice of sequence submitters and outside taxonomy experts. Consequently, the NCBI taxonomy database is not a phylogenetic or taxonomic authority and should not be cited as such.

http://www.phi-base.org/

Database that catalogs experimentally verified pathogenicity, virulence and effector genes from fungal, Oomycete and bacterial pathogens, which infect animal, plant, fungal and insect hosts. It is an invaluable resource in the discovery of genes in medically and agronomically important pathogens, which may be potential targets for chemical intervention. In collaboration with the FRAC team, it also includes antifungal compounds and their target genes. Each entry is curated by domain experts and is supported by strong experimental evidence (gene disruption experiments, STM etc), as well as literature references in which the original experiments are described. Each gene is presented with its nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequence, as well as a detailed description of the predicted protein's function during the host infection process. To facilitate data interoperability, genes have been annotated using controlled vocabularies and links to external sources (Gene Ontology terms, EC Numbers, NCBI taxonomy, EMBL, PubMed and FRAC).

http://www.hpppi.iicb.res.in/btox/

Database of Bacterial ExoToxins for Human is a database of sequences, structures, interaction networks and analytical results for 229 exotoxins, from 26 different human pathogenic bacterial genus. All toxins are classified into 24 different Toxin classes. The aim of DBETH is to provide a comprehensive database for human pathogenic bacterial exotoxins. DBETH also provides a platform to its users to identify potential exotoxin like sequences through Homology based as well as Non-homology based methods. In homology based approach the users can identify potential exotoxin like sequences either running BLASTp against the toxin sequences or by running HMMER against toxin domains identified by DBETH from human pathogenic bacterial exotoxins. In Non-homology based part DBETH uses a machine learning approach to identify potential exotoxins (Toxin Prediction by Support Vector Machine based approach).

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/CW-PRED/

A web tool for the prediction of Cell Wall-Anchored Proteins in Gram+ Bacteria. Gram-positive bacteria have surface proteins that are often implicated in virulence. A group of extracellular proteins attached to the cell wall contains an LPXTG-like motif that is target for cleavage and covalent coupling to peptidoglycan by sortase enzymes. A new Hidden Markov Model (HMM), an extension to the HMM model from Litou et al., http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18464329, was developed for predicting the LPXTG and LPXTG-like cell-wall proteins of Gram-positive bacteria. An analysis of 177 completely sequenced genomes has been performed as well. We identified in total 1456 cell-wall proteins, from which 1283 have the LPXTG motif, 39 the NPXTG motif, 53 have the LPXTA and 81 the LAXTG motif.

http://bioinformatics.biol.uoa.gr/PRED-TMBB/

A web tool, based on a Hidden Markov Model, capable of predicting the transmembrane beta-strands of the gram-negative bacteria outer membrane proteins, and of discriminating such proteins from water-soluble ones when screening large datasets. The model is trained in a discriminative manner, aiming at maximizing the probability of the correct prediction rather than the likelihood of the sequences. The training is performed on a non-redundant database consisting of 16 outer membrane proteins (OMP''s) with their structures known at atomic resolution. We show that we can achieve predictions at least as good comparing with other existing methods, using as input only the amino-acid sequence, without the need of evolutionary information included in multiple alignments. The method is also powerful when used for discrimination purposes, as it can discriminate with a high accuracy the outer membrane proteins from water soluble in large datasets, making it a quite reliable solution for screening entire genomes. This web-server can help you run a discriminating process on any amino-acid sequence and thereafter localize the transmembrane strands and find the topology of the loops.
