http://wiki.c2b2.columbia.edu/califanolab/index.php/Software/ARACNE

An algorithm, using microarray expression profiles, to scale up to the complexity of regulatory networks in mammalian cells, yet general enough to address a wider range of network deconvolution problems. This method uses an information theoretic approach to eliminate the vast majority of indirect interactions typically inferred by pairwise analysis.

http://www.sanger.ac.uk/science/tools/carol

Software application that is a combined functional annotation score of non-synonymous coding variants. A major challenge in interpreting whole-exome data is predicting which of the discovered variants are deleterious or neutral. To address this question in silico, they have developed a score called Combined Annotation scoRing toOL (CAROL), which combines information from two bioinformatics tools: PolyPhen-2 and SIFT, in order to improve the prediction of the effect of non-synonymous coding variants. The combination of annotation tools can help improve automated prediction of whole-genome/exome non-synonymous variant functional consequences. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software) The software should run on any UNIX or GNU/Linux system.

http://support.illumina.com/sequencing/sequencing_software/casava.html

Software package that creates genomic builds, calls SNPs, detects indels, and counts reads from data generated from one or more sequencing runs. In addition, CASAVA automatically generates a range of statistics, such as mean depth and percentage chromosome coverage, to enable comparison with previous builds or other samples. CASAVA analyzes sequencing reads in three stages: * FASTQ file generation and demultiplexing * Alignment to a reference genome * Variant detection and counting

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23,2022.SNP genotyping algorithm that runs on the Affymetrix 500K, SNP5.0, and SNP6.0 platforms. This software runs a clustering algorithm and generally should be run on a sample at least 50 times. It utilizes an Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm to produce genotypes and confidence scores for every individual at every SNP.

http://genome.sph.umich.edu/wiki/Polymutt

Software program that implemented a likelihood-based framework for calling single nucleotide variants and detecting de novo point mutation events in families for next-generation sequencing data. The program takes as input genotype likelihood format (GLF) files which can be generated following the Creation of GLF files instruction and outputs the result in the (VCF) format. The variant calling and de novo mutation detection are modelled jointly within families and can handle both nuclear and extended pedigrees without consanguinity loops. The input is a set of GLF files for each of family members and the relationships are specified through the .ped file. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)

https://www.broadinstitute.org/birdsuite/birdsuite

Open-source set of tools to detect and report SNP genotypes, common Copy-Number Polymorphisms (CNPs), and novel, rare, or de novo CNVs in samples processed with the Affymetrix platform. While most of the components of the suite can be run individually (for instance, to only do SNP genotyping), the Birdsuite is especially intended for integrated analysis of SNPs and CNVs.

http://www.sanger.ac.uk/science/tools/dindel

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on March 7,2024. Software program for calling small indels from short-read sequence data ("next generation sequence data"). It is currently designed to handle only Illumina data. Dindel takes BAM files with mapped Illumina read data and enables researchers to detect small indels and produce a VCF file of all the variant calls. It has been written in C++ and can be used on Linux-based and Mac computers (it has not been tested on Windows operating systems).

http://gmod.org/wiki/Apollo

A standalone Java application with a GUI (graphical user interface) for editing genome annotations. Like GBrowse, it allows users to scroll and zoom in on areas of interest in a sequence; authorized users can edit annotations and write the changes back to the underlying database. Apollo can run off GFF3 or a Chado database, and it can also integrate with remote services, such as BLAST and Primer BLAST analyses.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.Documented on January 4,2023. IgBLAST was developed at NCBI to facilitate analysis of immunoglobulin V region sequences in GenBank. In addition to performing a regular BLAST search, IgBLAST has several additional functions: - Reports the germline V, D and J gene matches to the query sequence. - Annotates the immunoglobulin domains (FWR1 through FWR3). - Matches the returned hits (for databases other than germline genes) to the closest germline V genes, making it easier to identify related sequences. - Reveals the V(D)J junction details such as nucleotide homology between the ends of V(D)J segments and N nucleotide insertions. D and J gene reporting is only for nucleotide sequence search and requires a stretch of five or more nucleotide identity between the query and D or J genes. Sponsors: This resource is supported by the National Center for Biotechnology Information, a division of the U.S. National Library of Medicine.
