http://bioinformatics.charite.de/voronoia/

Voronoia is a program suite to analyse and visualize the atomic packing of protein structures. It is based on the Voronoi Cell method and can be used to estimate the quality of a protein structure, e.g. by comparing the packing density of buried atoms to a reference data set or by highlighting protein regions with large packing defects. Voronoia is also targeted to detect locations of putative internal water or binding sites for ligands. Accordingly, Voronoia is beneficial for a broad range of protein structure approaches. It is applicable as a standalone version coming with a user friendly GUI or, alternatively, as a Pymol Plugin. Finally, Voronoia is also available as an easy to use webtool to process user defined PDB-files or to asses precalculated packing files from DOPP, the regularly updated Dictionary of Packing in Proteins.

The Statistics and Bioinformatics research group has as its main objectives the development of methods and tools to deal with problems appearing in the interface between Statistics and Bioinformatics. We started focusing in DNA microarrays but we are also interested in statistical methods for ''omics'' data integration and next generation sequencing (NGS). Our group collaborates with different research groups in the fields of biology and biomedicine, to whom it offers statistical support for problems which are specifically statistic in nature, such as experimental design or microarray data analysis, and also in more general aspects, such as modeling, analysis or data mining. After a first period of collaboration agreements with the Fundaci�� Vall d''Hebr��n Institut de Recerca we contributed to the creation of the Statistics and Bioinformatics Unit (UEB) which provides statistical and bioinformatical support to VHIR researchers.

http://distild.jensenlab.org/

The DistiLD database aims to increase the usage of existing genome-wide association studies (GWAS) results by making it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes in their chromosomal context. The database performs three important tasks: # published GWAS are collected from several sources and linked to standardized, international disease codes ICD10 codes) # data from the International HapMap Project are analyzed to define linkage disequilibrium (LD) blocks onto which SNPs and genes are mapped # the web interface makes it easy to query and visualize disease-associated SNPs and genes within LD blocks. Users can query the database by diseases, SNPs or genes. No matter which of the three query modes was used, an intermediate page will be shown listing all the studies that matched the search with a link to the corresponding publication. The user can select either all studies related to a certain disease or one specific study for which to view the related LD blocks. The DistiLD resource integrates information on: * Associations between Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and diseases from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) * Links between SNPs and genes based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) data from HapMap For convenience, we provide the complete datasets as two (zipped) tab-delimited files. The first file contains GWAS results mapped to LD blocks. The second file contains all SNPs and genes assigned to each LD block.

The Oomycete Molecular Genetics Research Collaboration Network (OMGN) is a network for research collaboration for investigators interested in oomycete molecular genetics and genomics. The goals of the OMGN is to facilitate the integration of these investigators into the community and to further strengthen the cooperative culture of this community. A particular emphasis is placed on training and integrating junior faculty and faculty from institutions under-represented in the U.S. research infrastructure. Because of their economic impact as plant pathogens, molecular, genetic and genomics studies are well advanced in many oomycete species. These organisms have served as lead species for the entire Stramenopiles lineage, a major radiation of crown eukaryotes, distinct from plants, animals and fungi. The oomycete molecular genetics community has a strong culture of collaboration and communication, and sharing of techniques and resources. With the recent blossoming of genetic and genomic tools for oomycetes, many new investigators, from a variety of backgrounds, have become interested in oomycete molecular genetics and genomics. The proposed network is open to all researchers with an interest in oomycete molecular genetics and genomics, either at an experimental or a computational level. Investigators new to the field are always welcome, especially those interested in saprophytes and animal pathogens. Goals of OMGN # Provide training to o��mycete molecular genetics researchers, especially those from smaller institutions, in the use of bioinformatics and genomics resources. # Promote the entry, participation and training of new investigators into the field of o��mycete genomics, particularly junior faculty and faculty from institutions under-represented in the U.S. research infrastructure. # Promote communication and collaboration, and minimize duplication of effort, within the worldwide o��mycete genomics community. # Support an O��mycete Genomics Resources Center to maintain and distribute training and research materials produced by community genomics projects. The network''s activities have been supported by two grants from the NSF Research Collaboration Networks in Biology program.

http://vortex.cs.wayne.edu/projects.htm#Onto-Translate

In the annotation world, the same piece of information can be stored and viewed differently across different databases. For instance, more than one Affymetrix probe ID can refer to the same GenBank sequence (accession number) and more than one nucleotide sequence from GenBank can be grouped in a single UniGene cluster. The result of Onto-Express depends on whether the input list contains Affymetrix probe IDs, GenBank accession numbers or UniGene cluster IDs. The user has to be aware of relations between the different forms of the data in order to interpret correctly the results. Even if the user is aware of the relationships and knows how to convert them, most existing tools allow conversions of individual genes. Onto-Translate is a tool that allows the user to perform easily such translations. Affymetrix probe IDs, etc., translate GO terms into other identifiers like GenBank accession number, Uniprot IDs. User account required. Platform: Online tool
