GoSurfer uses Gene Ontology (GO) information to analyze gene sets obtained from genome-wide computations or microarray analyses. GoSurfer is a graphical interactive data mining tool. It associates user input genes with GO terms and visualizes such GO terms as a hierarchical tree. Users can manipulate the tree output by various means, like setting heuristic thresholds or using statistical tests. Significantly important GO terms resulted from a statistical test can be highlighted. All related information are exportable either as texts or as graphics. Platform: Windows compatible

BOMP is a tool for prediction of beta-barrel integral outer membrane proteins. The user may submit a list of proteins, and receive a list of predicted BOMPs. The program, called the beta-barrel Outer Membrane protein Predictor (BOMP), is based on two separate components to recognize integral beta-barrel proteins. The first component is a C-terminal pattern typical of many integral beta-barrel proteins. The second component calculates an integral beta-barrel score of the sequence based on the extent to which the sequence contains stretches of amino acids typical of transmembrane -strands. To use the BOMP tool simply paste your fasta-formatted sequences into the text area, or choose a file which contains sequences. Then hit the submit button. It is possible to perform a BLAST search parallel with the predictions, which may be suitable in some cases. Using the BLAST search will however increase the running time substantially. Sponsors: This work was supported in part by grants from the Norwegian Research Council [SUP 140785/420 (GABI); FUGE/CBU151899/ISO], and the Meltzer Foundation, University of Bergen.

http://www.homepages.ed.ac.uk/pmckeigu/admixmap/index.html

General-purpose program for modelling admixture, using marker genotypes and trait data on a sample of individuals from an admixed population (such as African-Americans), where the markers have been chosen to have extreme differentials in allele frequencies between two or more of the ancestral populations between which admixture has occurred. The main difference between ADMIXMAP and classical programs for estimation of admixture such as ADMIX is that ADMIXMAP is based on a multilevel model for the distribution of individual admixture in the population and the stochastic variation of ancestry on hybrid chromosomes. This makes it possible to model the associations of ancestry between linked marker loci, and the association of a trait with individual admixture or with ancestry at a linked marker locus.

Specific short oligonucleotide sequences that enhance pre-mRNA splicing when present in exons, termed exonic splicing enhancers (ESEs), play important roles in constitutive and alternative splicing (ESE References). A hybrid computational/experimental method, RESCUE-ESE, was recently developed for identifying sequences with ESE activity. In this approach, specific hexanucleotide sequences are identified as candidate ESEs on the basis that they have both significantly higher frequency of occurrence in exons than in introns and also significantly higher frequency in exons with weak (non-consensus) splice sites than in exons with strong (consensus) splice sites. Representative hexamers from ten different classes of candidate ESEs, together with 6 or 7 bases of flanking sequence context on each side, were introduced into a weak (poorly spliced) exon in a splicing reporter construct. These reporter minigenes were then transfected into cultured cells, where they are transcribed and spliced, and the relative level of inclusion of the test exon was assayed by quantitative (radio-labeled) RT-PCR. Point mutants of these sequences were also analyzed to confirm the precise motifs responsible for ESE activity. The RESCUE-ESE approach identified 238 hexamers as candidate ESEs using a large database of human genes of known exon-intron structure containing over 30,000 nonredudant exons. In more recent analyses by Yeo et al., the RESCUE-ESE approach was utilized to predict hexamers as candidate ESEs in other vertebrate genes, namely, Fugu rubipes, Zebrafish and Mouse. This allows the identification of motifs that are conserved in vertebrates. This web server allows a sequence to be checked for presence of these candidate ESE hexamers.
