http://biobricks.org/

The BioBricks Foundation (BBF) is dedicated to advancing synthetic biology to benefit all people and the planet. To achieve this, we must make engineering biology easier, safer, equitable, and more open. We do this in the following ways: by ensuring that the fundamental building blocks of synthetic biology are freely available for open innovation; by creating community, common values and shared standards; and by promoting biotechnology for all constructive interests. We envision a world in which scientists and engineers work together using BioBric parts freely available standardized biological parts to create safe, ethical solutions to the problems facing humanity. We envision synthetic biology as a force for good in the world. We see a future in which architecture, medicine, environmental remediation, agriculture, and many other fields are using the technology of synthetic biology. Our supporters are many and include corporations, individuals, institutions, foundations, government, corporations, and others. Currently, the BBF''s key programs include: * BIOFAB * BioBrick Public Agreement * Technical Standards Framework * Conferences and Workshops * BBF Global Network * OpenWetWare

http://www.ensemblgenomes.org/

Database portal offering integrated access to genome-scale data from non-vertebrate species of scientific interest, developed using the Ensembl genome annotation and visualization platform. Ensembl Genomes consists of five sub-portals (for bacteria, protists, fungi, plants and invertebrate metazoa) designed to complement the availability of vertebrate genomes in Ensembl. Many of the databases supporting the portal have been built in close collaboration with the scientific community - essential for maintaining the accuracy and usefulness of the resource. A common set of user interfaces (which include a graphical genome browser, FTP, BLAST search, a query optimized data warehouse, programmatic access, and a Perl API) is provided for all domains. Data types incorporated include annotation of (protein and non-protein coding) genes, cross references to external resources, and high throughput experimental data (e.g. data from large scale studies of gene expression and polymorphism visualized in their genomic context). Additionally, extensive comparative analysis has been performed, both within defined clades and across the wider taxonomy, and sequence alignments and gene trees resulting from this can be accessed through the site.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/qudaich/

A software package for local sequence alignment for next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. It generates the pairwise local alignments between a query dataset against a database. The main design purpose of qudaich is to focus on datasets from next generation sequencing. These the datasets generally have hundreds of thousand sequences or more, and so, the input database should contain large number of sequences. Qudaich is flexible and its algorithmic structure imposes no restriction on the absolute limit of the acceptable read length, but the current version of qudaich allow read length <2000 bp. Qudaich can be used to align DNA, translated DNA and protein sequences.

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/webmill/

Web game that provides an innovative infrastructure for labeling to enable an alternative to expert raters for medical image labeling through statistical analysis of the collaborative efforts of many, minimally-trained raters. Statistical atlases of regional brain anatomy have proven to be extremely useful in characterizing the relationship between the structure and function of the human nervous system. Typically, an expert human rater manually examines each slice of a three-dimensional volume. This approach can be exceptionally time and resource intensive, so cost severely limits the clinical studies where subject-specific labeling is feasible. Methods for improved efficiency and reliability of manual labeling would be of immense benefit for clinical investigation into morphological correlates of brain function.

https://code.google.com/p/softsearch/

A sensitive structural variant (SV) detection software tool for Illumina paired-end next-generation sequencing data. It simultaneously utilizes soft-clipping and read-pair strategies for detecting SVs to increase sensitivity. Soft clips are proxies for split-reads that indicate part of the read maps to the reference genome, but the other part is not localized at the same place (e.g. breakpoint spanning reads). Discordant read-pairs refer to a read and its mate, where the insert size is greater (or less than) the expected distribution of the dataset ? or ? where the mapping orientation of the reads is unexpected (e.g. both on the same strand). SoftSearch looks for areas with soft-clipping in the genome that have discordant read pairs supporting the anomaly. Once areas with both these conditions are identified, the read and mate information is extracted directly from the BAM file containing the discordant reads, obviating the need for time-consuming and error-prone complex alignment strategies. Only a small number of soft-masked bases discordant read-pairs are necessary to identify an SV, which on their own would not be sufficient to make an SV call, thus highlighting SoftSearch?s improved sensitivity. SoftSearch is well suited to be ?plugged in? to most sequence analysis workflows, since it requires standard file inputs, such as a BAM file using almost any aligner and a reference genome FASTA file. Because SoftSearch requires soft-masked bases, the only requirement is that the aligner must have this functionality, which is usually turned on by default by many standard aligners (e.g. BWA, Novoalign, etc).

https://cansar.icr.ac.uk/

canSAR is an integrated database that brings together biological, chemical, pharmacological (and eventually clinical) data. Its goal is to integrate this data and make it accessible to cancer research scientists from multiple disciplines, in order to help with hypothesis generation in cancer research and support translational research. This cancer research and drug discovery resource was developed to utilize the growing publicly available biological annotation, chemical screening, RNA interference screening, expression, amplification and 3D structural data. Scientists can, in a single place, rapidly identify biological annotation of a target, its structural characterization, expression levels and protein interaction data, as well as suitable cell lines for experiments, potential tool compounds and similarity to known drug targets. canSAR has, from the outset, been completely use-case driven which has dramatically influenced the design of the back-end and the functionality provided through the interfaces. The Web interface provides flexible, multipoint entry into canSAR. This allows easy access to the multidisciplinary data within, including target and compound synopses, bioactivity views and expert tools for chemogenomic, expression and protein interaction network data.
