https://github.com/TransDecoder/TransDecoder

Software tool to identify candidate coding regions within transcript sequences, such as those generated by de novo RNA-Seq transcript assembly using Trinity, or constructed based on RNA-Seq alignments to genome using Tophat and Cufflinks.Starts from FASTA or GFF file. Can scan and retain open reading frames (ORFs) for homology to known proteins by using BlastP or Pfam search and incorporate results into obtained selection. Predictions can then be visualized by using genome browser such as IGV.

http://toppcluster.cchmc.org/

A tool for performing multi-cluster gene functional enrichment analyses on large scale data (microarray experiments with many time-points, cell-types, tissue-types, etc.). It facilitates co-analysis of multiple gene lists and yields as output a rich functional map showing the shared and list-specific functional features. The output can be visualized in tabular, heatmap or network formats using built-in options as well as third-party software. It uses the hypergeometric test to obtain functional enrichment achieved via the gene list enrichment analysis option available in ToppGene.

http://crdd.osdd.net/servers/virsirnadb/

VIRsiRNAdb is a curated database of experimentally validated viral siRNA / shRNA targeting diverse genes of 42 important human viruses including influenza, SARS and Hepatitis viruses. Submissions are welcome. Currently, the database provides detailed experimental information of 1358 siRNA/shRNA which includes siRNA sequence, virus subtype, target gene, GenBank accession, design algorithm, cell type, test object, test method and efficacy (mostly quantitative efficacies). Further, wherever available, information regarding alternative efficacies of above 300 siRNAs derived from different assays has also been incorporated. The database has facilities like search, advance search (using Boolean operators AND, OR) browsing (with data sorting option), internal linking and external linking to other databases (Pubmed, Genbank, ICTV). Additionally useful siRNA analysis tools are also provided e.g. siTarAlign for aligning the siRNA sequence with reference viral genomes or user defined sequences. virsiRNAdb would prove useful for RNAi researchers especially in siRNA based antiviral therapeutics development.
