Biobank of the Medical University of Graz.

Pigs

Bioinformatics — Thu, 27 Dec 2012 17:06:47 +0000

Pigs is a web server for the automatic modeling of immunoglobulin variable domains based on the canonical structure method. It has a user-friendly and flexible interface, that allows the user to choose templates (for the frameworks and the loops) and modeling strategies in an automatic or manual fashion. Its final output is a complete three-dimensional model of the target antibody that can be downloaded or displayed on-line. The server is freely accessible to academic users, with no restriction on the number of submitted sequences.

Bioclipse

Bioinformatics — Wed, 26 Dec 2012 17:04:25 +0000

Bioclipse is a free and open source workbench for the life sciences.

Bioclipse is based on the Eclipse Rich Client Platform(RCP) which means that Bioclipse inherits a state-of-the-art plugin architecture, functionality, and visual interfaces from Eclipse, such as help system, software updates, preferences, cross-platform deployment etc.

Bioclipse provides advanced functionality in fields such as cheminformatics, bioinformatics, semantic web, spectrum analysis, drug discovery, safety assessment, and general chemistry education.

Bioclipse is developed as a collaboration between the Proteochemometric Group , Dept. of Pharmaceutical Biosciences, Uppsala University, Sweden, and the Cheminformatics and Metabolism Team at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI).

Bioclipse is released under Eclipse Public License (EPL) + exception, see the License Statement, putting no constraints on choice of backend and/or license for creating plugins for Bioclipse; it is totally open for both open source plugins as well as commercial.

GATK

Bioinformatics — Wed, 26 Dec 2012 16:05:15 +0000

The Genome Analysis Toolkit or GATK is a software package developed at the Broad Institute to analyse next-generation resequencing data. The toolkit offers a wide variety of tools, with a primary focus on variant discovery and genotyping as well as strong emphasis on data quality assurance. Its robust architecture, powerful processing engine and high-performance computing features make it capable of taking on projects of any size.

OntoMaton

Bioinformatics — Wed, 26 Dec 2012 16:00:12 +0000

OntoMaton is an open source solution that brings ontology look-up and tagging capabilities into a cloud-based collaborative editing environment, harnessing Google Spreadsheets and the NCBO Bioportal Web services. It is a general purpose, format-agnostic tool that may serve as a component of the ISA software suite. OntoMaton can also be used to assist the ontology development process.

AVAILABILITY: OntoMaton is freely available from Google widgets under the CPAL open source license; documentation and examples at: https://github.com/ISA-tools/OntoMaton CONTACT: isatools@googlegroups.com.

TopHat

Bioinformatics — Wed, 26 Dec 2012 05:57:27 +0000

TopHat is a fast splice junction mapper for RNA-Seq reads. It aligns RNA-Seq reads to mammalian-sized genomes using the ultra high-throughput short read aligner Bowtie, and then analyzes the mapping results to identify splice junctions between exons.

TopHat is a collaborative effort between the Institute of Genetic Medicine at Johns Hopkins University, the Departments of Mathematics and Molecular and Cell Biology at the University of California, Berkeley and the Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology at Harvard University.

Bowtie

Bioinformatics — Wed, 26 Dec 2012 05:52:52 +0000

Bowtie is an ultrafast, memory-efficient short read aligner. It aligns short DNA sequences (reads) to the human genome at a rate of over 25 million 35-bp reads per hour. Bowtie indexes the genome with a Burrows-Wheeler index to keep its memory footprint small: typically about 2.2 GB for the human genome (2.9 GB for paired-end).

Brandeis University Bioinformatics Program

Bioinformatics — Thu, 15 Nov 2012 01:10:04 +0000

Bioinformatics is the multidisciplinary and revolutionary field that uses mathematical, statistical and computing methods to solve complex biological problems.
Bioinformatics techniques are used to analyze the vast amounts of data emerging from technology advances in genome sequencing, genome expression, proteomics and other high-throughput experimental methods.
The Bioinformatics program in the Division of Graduate Professional Studies provides students with comprehensive education across the multiple disciplines of bioinformatics and computational biology, enabling them to directly impact biological research and drug discovery at multiple levels of a research organization.
With program prerequisites that are assessed for each student individually, the program prepares students with backgrounds in engineering, computer science, information technology or life science.

Bioinformatics Institute of India (BII)

Bioinformatics — Thu, 15 Nov 2012 00:51:24 +0000

Established in 2002, Bioinformatics Institute of India (BII) is first of its kind with solely focusing on Bioinformatics and other applied life sciences domains. BII is registered under Confrere Educational Society. The society is formed by academicians, scientists and engineers. The society is registered since 2002 under Societies Registration Act in Meerut.
BII is, resolute visionary, committed to provide world class technical and scientific education in life sciences domain. The aim behind the establishment of BII was to synergize theoretical knowledge and practical skills to promote all round professional competence due to which now BII has acquired a unique status in the country and globally.
