http://code.google.com/p/mosaik-aligner/

A reference-guided assembler comprising of two main modular programs: MosaikBuild and MosaikAligner. MosaikBuild converts various sequence formats into Mosaik?s native read format. MosaikAligner pairwise aligns each read to a specified series of reference sequences and produces BAMs as outputs. At this time, the workflow consists of supplying sequences in FASTA, FASTQ, Illumina Bustard & Gerald, or SRF file formats and producing results in the BAM format. Unlike many current read aligners, MOSAIK produces gapped alignments using the Smith-Waterman algorithm. MOSAIK is written in highly portable C++ and currently targetted for the following platforms: Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, FreeBSD, and Linux operating systems. Other platforms can easily be supported upon request. MOSAIK is multithreaded. If you have a machine with 8 processors, you can use all 8 processors to align reads faster while using the same memory footprint as when using one processor. MOSAIK supports multiple sequencing technologies. In addition to legacy technologies such as Sanger capillary sequencing, our program supports next generation technologies such as Roche 454, Illumina, AB SOLiD, and experimental support for the Helicos Heliscope.

http://cibiv.github.io/NextGenMap/

A mapping program for Next Generation Sequencing reads that is more than twice as fast as BWA, while achieving a mapping sensitivity similar to Stampy or Bowtie2. NextGenMap uses a memory efficient index structure (hash table) to store the positions of all 13-mers present in the reference genome. This index enables a quick identification of potential mapping regions for every read. Unlike other methods, NextGenMap dynamically determines for each read individually how many of the potential mapping regions have to be evaluated by a pairwise sequence alignment. Moreover, NextGenMap uses fast SIMD instructions (SSE) to accelerate the alignment calculations on the CPU. If available NextGenMap calculates the alignments on the GPU (using OpenCL/CUDA) resulting in a runtime reduction of another 20 - 50 %, depending on the underlying data set.

Software pipeline that provides a set of novel quality control measures for quickly detecting a wide variety of quality issues in deep sequencing data derived from two dimensional surfaces, regardless of the assay technology used. It also enables researchers to determine whether sequencing data related to their most interesting biological discoveries are caused by sequencing quality issues. NGSQC can help to ensure that biological conclusions, in particular those based on relatively rare sequences, are not caused by low quality sequencing., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

http://202.97.205.78/CpG_MPs/

Tool for identification and analysis of CpG methylation patterns of genomic regions from high-throughput bisulfite sequencing data. It may identify the unmethylated and methylated regions for a single sample, the conserved and differential methylation regions with different methylation patterns for paired or multiple samples. It includes four main modules as follows: # Normalization of the sequencing reads of cytosines following guanines; # Identification of the unmethylated (methylated) regions using hotspot extension algorithm; # Identification of conservatively and differentially methylated regionsby combining the combinatorial algorithm for determination of potentially functional regions with the algorithm of analysis of variance (ANOVA) for assess the statistical significance of differentially methylated regions; # Extraction of sequence features and visualization of these potentially functional regions.

http://campagnelab.org/software/gobyweb/

Web application that facilitates the management and analysis of high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data. In the back-end, it uses the Goby framework, BWA, STAR, Last, GSNAP, Samtools, VCF-tools, along with a cluster of servers to provide rapid alignment and efficient analyses. GobyWeb makes it possible to analyze hundreds of samples in consistent ways without having to use command line tools. GobyWeb provides tools that streamline frequent data analyses for RNA-Seq, Methyl-Seq, RRBS, or DNA-Seq datasets and to enable teams of investigators to share reads and results of analyses. GobyWeb can be extended for new analyses by developing plugins.
