https://code.google.com/p/clippers/

A software program designed to identify long deletions of a genome as well as the RNA splicings using long Illumina reads. Currently, Clippers is implemented for long reads Illumina, ex: 75bp or 100bp, allowing mismatches and a single deletion/splicing. Clippers is a sister tool of PerM, our short reads aligner. Users are strongly suggested to use PerM to initially mapped reads and identify the deletion/splicing with the initially unmapped reads. We plan to extend it to ABI SOLiD reads in the near future. Clippers outputs gap-alignments in SAM format. You can use SAMtools or other program to interpret the deletion/splicing. The input files are a reference in fasta format and the reads is in fasta or fastq format.

http://sv.gersteinlab.org/pemer/

Software package as computational framework with simulation-based error models for inferring genomic structural variants from massive paired-end sequencing data. Package is composed of three modules, PEMer workflow, SV-Simulation and BreakDB. PEMer workflow is a sensitive software for detecting SVs from paired-end sequence reads. SV-Simulation randomly introduces SVs into a given genome and generates simulated paired-end reads from novel genome.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_Wiki

The Gene Wiki is a project that facilitates transferring information on human genes to Wikipedia article stubs with the goal of promoting collaboration and expansion of the articles. Number of gene articles The human genome contains an estimated 20,00025,000 protein-coding genes. The goal of the Gene Wiki project is to create seed articles for every notable human gene, that is, every gene whose function has been assigned in the peer-reviewed scientific literature. Approximately half of human genes have assigned function, therefore the total number of articles seeded by the Gene Wiki project would be expected to be in the range of 10,000 - 15,000. To date, approximately 10,271 articles have been created or augmented to include Gene Wiki project content. Expansion Once seed articles have been established, the hope and expectation is that these will be annotated and expanded by editors ranging in experience from the lay audience to students to professionals and academics. Proteins encoded by genes The majority of genes encode proteins hence understanding the function of a gene generally requires understanding of the function of the corresponding protein. In addition to including basic information about the gene, the project therefore also includes information about the protein encoded by the gene. Stubs for the Gene Wiki project are created by a bot and contain links to the following primary gene/protein databases * HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee official gene name * Entrez Gene database * OMIM (Mendelian Inheritance in Man) database that catalogues all the known diseases with a genetic component * Amigo Gene Ontology * HomoloGene gene homologs in other species * SymAtlasRNA gene expression pattern in tissues * Protein Data Bank 3D structure of protein encoded by the gene * Uniprot (universal protein resource) a central repository of protein data

http://dna.cs.byu.edu/gnumap/

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 3rd,2023. A software program designed to accurately map sequence data obtained from next-generation sequencing machines (specifically that of Solexa/Illumina) back to a genome of any size. By using the posterior probability of mapping a given read to a specific genomic loation, we are able to account for repetitive reads by distributing them across several regions in the genome. In addition, the output of the program is created in such a way that it can be easily viewed through other free and readily- available programs. Several benchmark data sets were created with spiked-in duplicate regions, and GNUMAP was able to more accurately account for these duplicate regions.

http://mbgd.genome.ad.jp/CGAT/

A comparative genome analysis tool for detailed comparison of closely related bacterial-sized genomes. It visualizes precomputed pairwise genome alignments on both dotplot and alignment viewers. Users can add information on this alignment, such as existence of tandem repeats or interspersed repetitive sequences and changes in codon usage bias, to facilitate interpretation of the observed genomic changes. Besides visualization functionalities, it also provides a general framework to process genome-scale alignments using various existing alignment programs. CGAT employs a client-server architecture, which consists of AlignmentViewer (client; a Java application) and DataServer (a set of Perl scripts). The DataServer package contains data construction scripts and CGI scripts and the AlignmentViewer program visualizes the alignment data obtained from the server thorough the HTTP protocol.

http://bioinfo.unl.edu/raiphy.php

A semi-supervised metagenomic fragment classification software program that utilizes the genome signatures to characterize the DNA sequences and taxonomic classification is based on an information theoretic measure referred as Relative Abundance Index (RAI). A DNA sequence of unknown source is classified and taxonomically labeled based on the phylogenetic profiles of the previously sequenced genomes. The profiles are iteratively updated using the unknown DNA sequences and the classification results. After a few cycles, the metagenome is classified into operational taxonomic units.

Open-source software tool to assign taxonomic labels to as many reads as possible in very large metagenomic datasets and report the taxonomic profile of the input sample. The quick "single pass" analysis of every read allows read binning to support additional more computationally expensive analysis such as metagenomic assembly or sensitive database searches on targeted subsets of reads.
