Hydra Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
Hydra (RRID:SCR_005260) | Hydra | software resource | Software that detects structural variation (SV) breakpoints by clustering discordant paired-end alignments whose signatures corroborate the same putative breakpoint. Hydra can detect breakpoints caused by all classes of structural variation. Moreover, it was designed to detect variation in both unique and duplicated genomic regions; therefore, it will examine paired-end reads having multiple discordant alignments. Hydra does not attempt to classify SV breakpoints based on the mapping distances and orientations of each breakpoint cluster, it merely detects and reports breakpoints. This is an intentional decision, as it was observed that in loci affected by complex rearrangements, the type of variant suggested by the breakpoint signature is not always correct. Hydra does report the orientations, distances, number of supporting read-pairs, etc., for each breakpoint. It is suggested that downstream methods be used to classify variants based on the genomic features that they overlap and the co-occurrence of other breakpoints. For example, they developed BEDTools for exactly this purpose and the breakpoints reported by Hydra are in the BEDPE format used by BEDTools. Future releases of Hydra will include scripts that assist in the classification process. | structural variation, genome, genomic, breakpoint, c++, cnv, pem, paired-end, segmental duplication, rearrangement |

NCBO Annotator (RRID:SCR_005329) | NCBO Annotator | data access protocol, production service resource, service resource, software resource, web service | A Web service that annotates textual metadata (e.g. journal abstract) with relevant ontology concepts. NCBO uses this Web service to annotate resources in the NCBO Resource Index. They also provide this Web service as a stand-alone service for users. This Web service can be accessed through BioPortal or used directly in your software. Currently, the annotation workflow is based on syntactic concept recognition (using concept names and synonyms) and on a set of semantic expansion algorithms that leverage the semantics in ontologies (e.g., is_a relations). Their service methodology leverages ontologies to create annotations of raw text and returns them using semantic web standards. | ontology, annotation, bio.tools |

FaBox Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
FaBox (RRID:SCR_005350) | FaBox | software resource | Tools for splitting, joining and otherwise manipulating FASTA format sequence files. The first tools in the toolbox is for manipulating fasta headers, cropping alignments and doing some sequence comparison allowing users to combine the description of data (often in excel spreadsheets) with the actual data (often DNA sequences). Also, producing correct input files for a range of programs seems to be problematic for the average user. Hence, some converters in some of the services have been included as well as some stand-alone converters. The converters are not necessarily meant to provide the final input file, but you''ll get a valid input file for Arlequin, MrBayes etc. - that you may further edit so it suit your needs. This means that you may need to combine several of the tools to finish your handling - but it keeps it relatively simple to use. Please note that FaBox is written in PHP and ONLY RUNS ON A WEBSERVER. | fasta, dna, protein sequence, dna sequence, protein, sequence, php |

PASS (RRID:SCR_005490) | PASS | software resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on October 19, 2020.A program to align short sequences that has been developed with an innovative strategy to perform fast gapped and ungapped alignment onto a reference sequence. It supports several data formats and allows the user to modulate very finely the sensitivity of the alignments. The program is designed to handle huge amounts of short reads generated by ILLUMINA, SOLiD and Roche-454 technology. The optimization of the internal data structure and a filter based on precomputed short-word alignments allow the program to skip false positives in the extension phase, thus reducing the execution time without loss of sensitivity. The final alignment is performed by dynamic programming., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025. | bio.tools |
