http://bamview.sourceforge.net/

A free interactive display of read alignments in BAM data files that can be launched with Java Web Start or downloaded. This interactive Java application for visualizing the large amounts of data stored for sequence reads which are aligned against a reference genome sequence can be used in a number of contexts including SNP calling and structural annotation. It has been integrated into Artemis so that the reads can be viewed in the context of the nucleotide sequence and genomic features. The source code is available as part of the Artemis code which can be downloaded from GitHub.

http://noble.gs.washington.edu/proj/genomedata/

A format for efficient storage of multiple tracks of numeric data anchored to a genome. The format allows fast random access to hundreds of gigabytes of data, while retaining a small disk space footprint. They have also developed utilities to load data into this format. Retrieving data from this format is more than 2900 times faster than a naive approach using wiggle files. A reference implementation in Python and C components is available here under the GNU General Public License. The software has only been tested on Linux and Mac systems.

Software tool combining both paired read and read depth signals into probabilistic model which can analyze multiple alignments of reads. Used to find structural variation in both normal and cancer genomes using data from variety of next-generation sequencing platforms. Used to predict structural variants directly from aligned reads in SAM/BAM format.Combines read depth information along with discordant paired read mappings into single probabilistic model two common signals of structural variation. When multiple alignments of read are given, GASVPro utilizes Markov Chain Monte Carlo procedure to sample over the space of possible alignments.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 5,2022.Tool that predicts interactions between transcription factors and their regulated genes from binding motifs. Understanding vertebrate development requires unraveling the cis-regulatory architecture of gene regulation. PRISM provides accurate genome-wide computational predictions of transcription factor binding sites for the human and mouse genomes, and integrates the predictions with GREAT to provide functional biological context. Together, accurate computational binding site prediction and GREAT produce for each transcription factor: 1. putative binding sites, 2. putative target genes, 3. putative biological roles of the transcription factor, and 4. putative cis-regulatory elements through which the factor regulates each target in each functional role., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://hmmer.janelia.org/

Tool for searching sequence databases for homologs of protein sequences, and for making protein sequence alignments. It implements methods using probabilistic models called profile hidden Markov models (profile HMMs). Compared to BLAST, FASTA, and other sequence alignment and database search tools based on older scoring methodology, HMMER aims to be significantly more accurate and more able to detect remote homologs because of the strength of its underlying mathematical models. In the past, this strength came at significant computational expense, but in the new HMMER3 project, HMMER is now essentially as fast as BLAST.

http://bioinformatics.mdanderson.org/main/SpliceSeq:Overview

A Java application to investigate alternative mRNA splicing patterns in data from high-throughput mRNA sequencing studies. Sequence reads are mapped to splice graphs that unambiguously quantify the inclusion level of each exon and splice junction. The graphs are then traversed to predict the protein isoforms that are likely to result from the observed exon and splice junction reads. UniProt annotations are mapped to each protein isoform to identify potential functional impacts of alternative splicing. This tool may be used on a single RNASeq sample to identify genes with multiple spliceforms, on a pair of samples to identify differential splicing between the two, or on groups of samples to identify statistically significant group level differences in splicing patterns. SpliceSeq can be run from the install page as a java web start application to explore the sequencing data on their server or can be installed locally to analyze your own mRNA-Seq data.
