Open-source set of tools to detect and report SNP genotypes, common Copy-Number Polymorphisms (CNPs), and novel, rare, or de novo CNVs in samples processed with the Affymetrix platform. While most of the components of the suite can be run individually (for instance, to only do SNP genotyping), the Birdsuite is especially intended for integrated analysis of SNPs and CNVs.

http://www.sanger.ac.uk/science/tools/dindel

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 7,2024. Software program for calling small indels from short-read sequence data ("next generation sequence data"). It is currently designed to handle only Illumina data. Dindel takes BAM files with mapped Illumina read data and enables researchers to detect small indels and produce a VCF file of all the variant calls. It has been written in C++ and can be used on Linux-based and Mac computers (it has not been tested on Windows operating systems).

http://gmod.org/wiki/Apollo

A standalone Java application with a GUI (graphical user interface) for editing genome annotations. Like GBrowse, it allows users to scroll and zoom in on areas of interest in a sequence; authorized users can edit annotations and write the changes back to the underlying database. Apollo can run off GFF3 or a Chado database, and it can also integrate with remote services, such as BLAST and Primer BLAST analyses.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on January 4,2023. IgBLAST was developed at NCBI to facilitate analysis of immunoglobulin V region sequences in GenBank. In addition to performing a regular BLAST search, IgBLAST has several additional functions: - Reports the germline V, D and J gene matches to the query sequence. - Annotates the immunoglobulin domains (FWR1 through FWR3). - Matches the returned hits (for databases other than germline genes) to the closest germline V genes, making it easier to identify related sequences. - Reveals the V(D)J junction details such as nucleotide homology between the ends of V(D)J segments and N nucleotide insertions. D and J gene reporting is only for nucleotide sequence search and requires a stretch of five or more nucleotide identity between the query and D or J genes. Sponsors: This resource is supported by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, a division of the U.S. National Library of Medicine.

http://clovr.org/

A desktop application for push-button automated sequence analysis that can utilize cloud computing resources. CloVR is implemented as a single portable virtual machine (VM) that provides several automated analysis pipelines for microbial genomics, including 16S, whole genome and metagenome sequence analysis. The CloVR VM runs on a personal computer, utilizes local computer resources and requires minimal installation, addressing key challenges in deploying bioinformatics workflows. In addition CloVR supports use of remote cloud computing resources to improve performance for large-scale sequence processing.

http://www.sanger.ac.uk/resources/software/vagrent/

Software tool set for calculating the biological consequences of genomic variations. The suite of perl modules compares genomic variations with reference genome annotations and generates the possible effects each variant may have on the transcripts it overlaps. It evaluates each variation/transcript combination and describes the effects in the mRNA, CDS and protein sequence contexts. It provides details of the sequence and position of the change within the transcript / protein as well as Sequence Ontology terms to classify its consequences.

http://www.gohad.uwa.edu.au/software/simhap

Software application providing a comprehensive modelling framework and a multiple-imputation approach to haplotypic analysis of population-based data. It uses biallelic SNP genotype data to impute haplotype frequencies at the individual level. SimHap also tests for haplotype associations with outcomes of interest while incorporating the uncertainty around inferred haplotypes into the modelling procedure. SimHap allows epidemiological (ie, non-genetic) and both single SNP and haplotype association analyses of quantitative Normal, binary, longitudinal and right-censored outcomes under a range of genetic models. SimHap can accommodate large data sets, and can model genetic and environmental effects, including complex haplotype:environment interactions. SimHap features cross-platform functionality via Java, and a sophisticated graphical user interface (GUI). SimHap will also perform association analysis on more simple epidemiological models, with or without the inclusion of genetic covariates. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)
