ClustalW2 is a general purpose multiple sequence alignment program for DNA or proteins. The online version is hosted by EMBL. It produces biologically meaningful multiple sequence alignments of divergent sequences. It calculates the best match for the selected sequences, and lines them up so that the identities, similarities and differences can be seen.

Elvira is a set of tools and procedures designed for high throughput assembly of small genomes such as viruses. The name Elvira stands for Executive for Large-scale VIRal Assembly. Elvira is particularly suitable in situations where any of the following occur: 1. Sequences must be individually trimmed against specific primers. 2. Sequences must be trimmed against degenerate primers. 3. Assemblies need to be explicitly partitioned based on sequence origin. The Elvira package includes s

Celera Assembler : scientific software for biological research. Celera Assembler is a de novo whole-genome shotgun (WGS) DNA sequence assembler. It reconstructs long sequences of genomic DNA from fragmentary data produced by whole-genome shotgun sequencing. It' a whole genome assembler originally developed at Celera Genomics for the assembly of the human genome. CeleraAssembler is now an open-source project at SourceForge. The code is actively maintained by researchers at CBCB and the Venter Ins

EDGE bioinformatics is intended to help truly democratize the use of Next Generation Sequencing for exploring genomes and metagenomes. Given that bioinformatic analysis is now the rate limiting factor in genomics, we developed EDGE bioinformatics with a user-friendly interface that allows scientists to perform a number of tailored analyses using many cutting-edge tools. Users can explore those and other data sets using a free demo hosted on the LANL server. Researchers who wish to analyse their

Bowtie is an ultrafast, memory-efficient short read aligner. It aligns short DNA sequences (reads) to the human genome at a rate of over 25 million 35-bp reads per hour. Bowtie indexes the genome with a Burrows-Wheeler index to keep its memory footprint small: typically about 2.2 GB for the human genome (2.9 GB for paired-end).

TopHat is a Linux or OS X program that aligns RNA-Seq reads to a genome in order to identify exon-exon splice junctions. It is designed to work with reads produced by the Illumina Genome Analyzer, although it was successful used with reads from other technologies. TopHat aligns RNA-Seq reads to mammalian-sized genomes using the ultra high-throughput short read aligner Bowtie, and then analyzes the mapping results to identify splice junctions between exons. It requires Bowtie, SAMtools an Python

Edena (Exact DE Novo Assembler) is an assembler dedicated to process the millions of very short reads produced by the Illumina Genome Analyzer. Edena is based on the traditional overlap layout paradigm. All exact overlaps between any pair of reads are computed and structured in a graph (overlap step). Basically, the reads are indexed in a prefix array and overlaps are revealed by dichotomic search in the arrays. The graph is then analyzed to remove transitive and spurious edges (layout step). Fi

Lucy was designed and written at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR, now the J. Craig Venter Institute), and it has been used here for several years to clean sequence data from automated DNA sequencers prior to sequence assembly and other downstream uses. The quality trimming portion of lucy makes use of phred quality scores, such as those produced by many automated sequencers based on the Sanger sequencing method. As such, lucy’s quality trimming may not be appropriate for sequence da

Next generation parallel sequencing technologies made chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-Seq) a popular strategy to study genome-wide protein-DNA interactions, while creating challenges for analysis algorithms. We present Model-based Analysis of ChIP-Seq (MACS) on short reads sequencers such as Genome Analyzer (Illumina / Solexa). MACS empirically models the length of the sequenced ChIP fragments, which tends to be shorter than sonication or library construction size esti

Cufflinks assembles transcripts, estimates their abundances, and tests for differential expression and regulation in RNA-Seq samples. It accepts aligned RNA-Seq reads and assembles the alignments into a parsimonious set of transcripts. Cufflinks then estimates the relative abundances of these transcripts based on how many reads support each one, taking into account biases in library preparation protocols. It runs on Intel-based computers running Linux or Mac OS X and that have GCC 4.0 or greater
