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://epigenome.usc.edu/publicationdata/bissnp2011/

A software package based on the Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) map-reduce framework for genotyping and accurate DNA methylation calling in bisulfite treated massively parallel sequencing (Bisulfite-seq, NOMe-seq, RRBS and any other bisulfite treated sequencing) with Illumina directional library protocol. It contains the following key features: * Call and summarize methylation of any cytosine context provided (CpG, CHH, CHG, GCH et.al.); * Work for single end and paired-end data; * Accurtae variant detection. Enable base quality recalibration and indel calling in bisulfite sequencing; * Based on Java map-reduce framework, allow multi-thread computing. Cross-platform; * Allow multiple output format, detailed VCF files, CpG haplotype reads file for mono-allelic methylation analysis, simplified bedGraph, wig and bed format for visualization in UCSC genome broswer and IGV browser. BisSNP uses bayesian inference with locus specific methylation probabilities and bisulfite conversion rate of different cytosine context(not only CpG, CHH, CHG in Bisulfite-seq, but also GCH et.al. in other bisulfite treated sequencing) to determine genotypes and methylation levels simultaneously., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://eqtl.rc.fas.harvard.edu/idcheck/

Software that allows assessment of concordance between genotype (from SNP arrays or DNA sequencing) and gene expression (RNA-seq) samples. IDCheck compares the identity of RNA-seq reads and SNP genotypes using a likelihood based method. Based on maximum likelihood estimates of relevant parameters, we can detect sample contamination and identify correct sample pairs when swapping occurs.

http://code.google.com/p/distmap/

A user-friendly software pipeline designed to map short reads in a MapReduce framework on a local Hadoop cluster. It is designed to be easily implemented by researchers who do not have expert knowledge of bioinformatics. As it does not have any dependencies, it provides full flexibility and control to the user. The user can use any version of a compatible mapper and any reference genome assembly. There is no need to maintain the mapper, reference or DistMap source code on each of the slaves (nodes) in the Hadoop cluster, making maintenance extremely easy.

http://www.well.ox.ac.uk/project-stampy

A software package for the mapping of short reads from illumina sequencing machines onto a reference genome. It''s recommended for most workflows, including those for genomic resequencing, RNA-Seq and Chip-seq. Stampy excels in the mapping of reads containing that contain sequence variation relative to the reference, in particular for those containing insertions or deletions. It can map reads from a highly divergent species to a reference genome for instance. Stampy achieves high sensitivity and speed by using a fast hashing algorithm and a detailed statistical model. Stampy has the following features: * Maps single, paired-end and mate pair Illumina reads to a reference genome * Fast: about 20 Gbase per hour in hybrid mode (using BWA) * Low memory footprint: 2.7 Gb shared memory for a 3Gbase genome * High sensitivity for indels and divergent reads, up to 10-15% * Low mapping bias for reads with SNPs * Well calibrated mapping quality scores * Input: Fastq and Fasta; gzipped or plain * Output: SAM, Maq''s map file * Optionally calculates per-base alignment posteriors * Optionally processes part of the input * Handles reads of up to 4500 bases

http://snap.cs.berkeley.edu/

A sequence aligner software program that is 10-100x faster and simultaneously more accurate than existing tools like BWA, Bowtie2 and SOAP2. It runs on commodity x86 processors, and supports a rich error model that lets it cheaply match reads with more differences from the reference than other tools. This gives SNAP up to 2x lower error rates than existing tools and lets it match larger mutations that they may miss. SNAP also natively reads BAM, FASTQ, or gzipped FASTQ, and natively writes SAM or BAM, with built-in sorting, duplicate marking, and BAM indexing.
