GMOD is a set of interoperable open source software components for visualizing, annotating, and managing biological data. See http://gmod.org for more.

A bioinformatics tool to PRe-process and show INformation of SEQuence data. The tool is written in Perl and can be helpful if you want to filter, reformat, or trim your sequence data. It also generates basic statistics for your sequences.

FragGeneScan is an application for finding (fragmented) genes in short reads. It can also be applied to predict prokaryotic genes in incomplete assemblies or complete genomes. FragGeneScan was first released through omics website (http://omics.informatics.indiana.edu/FragGeneScan/) in March 2010, where you can find its old releases. FragGeneScan migrated to SourceForge in October, 2013.

The only open source counter to count any items the simplest and easiest way with the keyboard, or the mouse specifically on images. After associating a key to each item, or a predefined graphical symbol for images, pressing the key or clicking on the image increments its associated counter, and displays (for the images) the symbol at the mouse's pointer location. Such a project is so simple a child could use it!

The Blue Obelisk Data Repository lists many important chemoinformatics data such as element and isotope properties, atomic radii, etc. including references to original literature. Developers can use this repository to make their software interoperable.

EvidentialGene is a genome informatics project, "Evidence Directed Gene Construction for Eukaryotes", to construct high quality, accurate gene sets for animals and plants, developed by Don Gilbert at Indiana University, see http://arthropods.eugenes.org/EvidentialGene/ Construction refers to the combination of classical gene prediction, and more recent gene assembly (de-novo and genome-assisted) methods. The basic Evigene methods involve using available best-of-breed gene prediction and assembly software, combining all evidence for genes, from expressed sequences, genome assembly sequences, related species protein sequences, and any other, to annotate and score gene constructions. Over-produced constructions are classified by gene evidence for best qualities per "locus", including genome-aligned and gene-transcript aligned (genome-free) locus identification. All software developed for EvidentialGene is publicly available. See project wiki/blog for notes.

Synthetic Biology Software Suite (SynBioSS) is composed of a wiki for biochemical kinetic constants, a graphical interface for simulating synthetic biological pathways, and a simulator that runs on either a desktop or supercomputer.

A software solution for clustering large EST/mRNAs datasets.

A Generalized Combinatorial Approach for Detecting Gene-by-Gene and Gene-by-Environment Interactions

ZORRO is a probabilistic masking program that assigns confidence scores to each column in a multiple seqeunce alignment. These scores can then be used to account for alignment accuracy in phylogenetic inference pipelines.

Now in Github: https://github.com/dnaase/Bis-tools/tree/master/Bis-SNP BisSNP is a package based on the Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) map-reduce framework for genotyping in bisulfite treated massively parallel sequencing (Bisulfite-seq, NOMe-seq and RRBS) on Illumina platform. It uses bayesian inference with either manually specified or automatically estimated methylation probabilities 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. It works for both of single-end and paired-end reads.Specificity and sensitivity has been validate by Illumina IM SNP array. In default threshold 30X data (Phred scale score > 20), it could detect 92.21% heterozygous SNPs with 0.14% false positive rate Cytosine calling is not only based on reference context, so it could detect non-reference cytosine context.

A set of very optimized tools for indexing/querying huge genomes/files. Provided so far: a very fast exact mapper, and an unconstrained split-mapper

This is the high throughput PCR primer design software that is used at the J. Craig Venter Institute. See: Li K, et al. "Novel computational methods for increasing PCR primer design effectiveness in directed sequencing". BMC Bioinformatics 2008, 9:191.

Grinder is a versatile open-source bioinformatic tool to create simulated omic shotgun and amplicon sequence libraries for all main sequencing platforms.

A minimalist approach to share text documents and data annotations. Allows a large number of different annotations to be represented. Project files contain: - simple code to hold/read/write data and perform sample processing. - BioC-formatted corpora - BioC tools that work with BioC corpora BioC goals - simplicity - interoperability - broad use - reuse There should be little investment required to learn to use a format or a software module to process that format. We are interested in reuse, and we focus on common NLP tasks that are broadly useful for textmining.

The NGS TOOLBOX is a collection of simple open source Perl scripts that perform basic analyses and processing steps using next generation sequencing (NGS) datasets. Each tool is designed to ensure convenient and intuitive usage. Installation and usage does not require any bioinformatics skills. All scripts work out-of-the-box. Advanced users may use the command line based Perl scripts to build automated sequence analyses/processing pipelines. If you use the NGS TOOLBOX you for publication purposes you can cite the following methods paper: Rosenkranz D, Han CT, Roovers EF, Zischler H, Ketting RF.
