MDcons is a tool to analyze conserved contacts during Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations of Protein, Rna, Dna & Ligand based complexes. The input is either a Molecular Dynamics trajectory or a set of snapshots. The input can also be a single snapshot. The outputs are (1) map of most/less frequently conserved contacts during MD (2) a list of most/less frequently conserved contacts during MD.

MethyMer is a Python-based tool aimed at selecting specific primers for amplification of complete CpG islands. These regions are difficult in terms of selection appropriate primers because of their low-complexity, polyN-, CG-richness, etc. MethyMer have a flexible scoring system capable of selecting primers in problematic regions (e.g. SpG islands) and includes specificity test (based on bowtie alignment against bisulfite-treated genome). It also incorporates TCGA CpG methylation (microarrays) and gene expression (RNA-Seq) data, as well as methylation-expression correlation analysis results for 20 human cancer types. ENCODE genome regions annotation data are also integrated in MethyMer

MutationFinder is a biomedical natural language processing (NLP) system for extracting mentions of point mutations from free text. MutationFinder achieves high performance (99% precision, 81% recall on blind test data) as an information extraction system

A lightweight, browsing-based, 100% Python, federated data integration framework. Users may create custom schemas for disparate sources, query and expand results across sources to find related data; for use in fields such as bioinformatics and datamining

The Structural Proteomics Application Development Environment is a Python tool kit for developing and deploying bioinformatics applications. Handles graphics, analysis, and modeling of protein sequence and structure. Source and Win installers available. SPADE source code can be cloned from http://www.github.com/deaconjs/SPADE.

Stochastic simulation model of poliovirus Sabin-to-Mahoney genetic state transition (C++ code). Models genotypes, virus populations, and quasispecies cloud. Simulates replication error and copy-choice recombination. Various parameters guiding the model are user-specified. Python code post-processes simulation output to produce report files.

pyQPCR is a GUI application written in python that deals with quantitative PCR (QPCR) raw data. Using quantification cycle values extracted from QPCR instruments, it uses a proven and universally applicable model to give finalized quantification resu

Create, check, annotate, merge, diff, split SBML (System Biology Markup Lanugage) documents. The latest version of semanticSBML is webbased with a RESTful interface.

ABC-SysBio implements likelihood free parameter inference and model selection in dynamical systems. It is designed to work with both stochastic and deterministic models written in Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML).

ADDA is a software package for finding domains in protein sequences. ADDA has moved to github (https://github.com/AndreasHeger/adda)

ADOMA stands for: Alternative Display Of Multiple Alignment. ADOMA can create four different displays of a multiple sequence alignment: a ClustalW alignment in HTML format, a simplified ClustalW alignment in HTML and/or txt format and a colored ClustalW alignment in HTML format. For examples of these outputfiles check the screenshots. ADOMA uses ClustalW to create the multiple alignment from DNA or protein sequences and displays them slightly different than the normal output of ClustalW. ADOMA is a commandline program that can easily be used in pipelines. For more information check the README.md in the Files section. How to cite ADOMA: Zaal, D. and Nota, B. (2016), ADOMA: A Command Line Tool to Modify ClustalW Multiple Alignment Output. Mol. Inf., 35: 42–44. doi: 10.1002/minf.201500083 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/minf.201500083/abstract

IMPORTANT: Since publication of the AMBIENT method in BMC Sys Bio, several updates have been made. If you wish to use the version used in the paper it is v0.6.3, however I recommend using the latest version which works in the same way but with additional options and has stability and performance improvements. Thanks for your interest! AMBIENT (Active Modules for Bipartite Networks) is a Python module that uses simulated annealing to find areas of a metabolic network (modules) that have some consistent characteristic. AMBIENT does not require predefined pathways and gives highly specific predictions of affected areas of metabolism. For example, scores for reactions based on transcriptional data of their annotated encoding genes can be used in the network and modules of coordinated expression changes can be found. This provides an alternative to pathway/gene set enrichment analyses which is simultaneously more flexible and more specific.

This project is A Mitochondrial OxydoReduction Simulation System. It consists of two linked projects: a program for displaying and analysing large biomolecular systems (Floral) and a multi-agent simulator for biomolecular oxydoreduction systems (AMORSS).

This software has moved to http://www.poissonboltzmann.org/.

We introduce ARDEN (Artificial Reference Driven Estimation of false positives in NGS data), a novel benchmark that estimates error rates based on real experimental reads and an additionally generated artificial reference genome. It allows the computation of error rates specifically for a dataset and the construction of a ROC-curve. Thereby, it can be used to optimize parameters for read mappers, to select read mappers for a specific problem or also to filter alignments based on quality estimation.

02-14-2014. Hamming distance calculation has been updated. These are python scripts to analyze antibody libraries sequenced by next generation sequencing methods (454, Ion Torrent, MiSeq) as described in D'Angelo et al MAbs. 2014 Jan 1;6(1):160-72.

Affymetrix GeneChip Operating Software (GCOS) is used to control Affymetrix Microarray scanners and fluidic stations. Using the DCOM API, this project provides programmatic scripting of GCOS using Python.

In Systems Biology models are created in various formats (Matlab, Java, C/C++, Python, ...). "Annotate Your Model" will help you to link your model to biological web resources by creating a CSV file containing MIRIAM annotations.

ArrayOligoSelector (AOS) systematically designs gene specific long oligo probes for entire genomes. The program optimizes the oligo selections for several parameters, including uniqueness in the genome, internal repeats, self-binding, and GC content.

This is the backend source code of the Atlas2-Cloud pipeline on Amazon which starts and terminates worker nodes, runs analysis and monitors worker instances. It is PRIMARILY meant to be used through Amazon Web Services (AWS) management console by looking for the public Atlas2-Cloud machine image. Alternatively, the code can also be used for running the pipeline from your computer. By installing this software on your computer you will be setting up your computer to act as the head node which would then run the pipeline from your computer.

BARNACLE is a Python library for RNA 3D structure prediction. It can be used for probabilistic sampling of RNA structures that are compatible with a given nucleotide sequence and that are RNA like on a local length scale.

A collection of bioinformatics-related software created by members of Cancer Research UK (possibly among others).
