DIALIGN Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
DIALIGN (RRID:SCR_003041) | DIALIGN | analysis service resource, data access protocol, data analysis service, production service resource, service resource, software resource, web service | Tool for multiple sequence alignment using various sources of external information that is particularly useful to detect local homologies in sequences with low overall similarity. While standard alignment methods rely on comparing single residues and imposing gap penalties, DIALIGN constructs pairwise and multiple alignments by comparing entire segments of the sequences. No gap penalty is used. This approach can be used for both global and local alignment, but it is particularly successful in situations where sequences share only local homologies. Several versions of DIALIGN are available online at GOBICS, http://dialign.gobics.de/ | dna, protein, sequence alignment, sequence, alignment, fasta, genome, genomic sequence, homology, bio.tools |

GMcloser Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
GMcloser (RRID:SCR_000646) | GMcloser | software resource | Software that fills and closes the gaps present in scaffold assemblies, especially those generated by the de novo assembly of whole genomes with next-generation sequencing (NGS) reads. Unlike other gap-closing tools that use only NGS reads, GMcloser uses preassembled contig sets or long read sets as the sequences to close gaps and uses paired-end (PE) reads and a likelihood-based algorithm to improve the accuracy and efficiency of gap closure. The efficiency of gap closure can be increased by successive treatments with different contig sets. | scaffolding, bio.tools |
