SASqPCR Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
SASqPCR (RRID:SCR_003056) | software resource | All-in-one computer program for robust and rapid analysis of quantitative reverse transcription real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) data in SAS. It incorporates all functions important for RT-qPCR data analysis including assessment of PCR efficiencies, validation of internal reference genes and normalizers, normalization of confounding variations across samples and statistical comparisons of target gene expression in parallel samples. The program is highly automatic in data analyses and result output. The input data have no limitations for the number of genes or cDNA samples. Users can simply change the macro variables to test various analytical strategies, optimize results and customize the analytical processes. The program is also extendable allowing advanced SAS users to develop particular statistical tests appropriate for their experimental designs. Thus users are the actual decision-makers controlling RT-qPCR data analyses. The program has to be used in SAS software; however, extensive SAS programming knowledge is not required. | standalone software, computation, analysis, statistics, rt-qpcr, cdna, mrna, gene expression, quantification, reference gene, normalization, sas |

Gutentag Resource Report Resource Website |
Gutentag (RRID:SCR_003051) | software resource | An interactive, user-editable genetic sequence database tool, targeted at molecular biology research groups that can be browsed using tags. The tool is Web 2.0-flavoured, allowing users to do more than just retrieve information. Its focus on user-editability is supported by the use of tags (metadata) associated with genetic sequences. Several methods of retrieving stored data are available including tag-clouds, BLAST and keyword searches. Also, sequence tags related to HGNC gene names, conserved domains (CDD) and GO terms can be automatically generated given sequence data. The tool is constructed using the high-level Python web framework, Django, with a SQLite3 backend. | standalone software, python, django, genetics, sequence |

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 |

GONUTS Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
GONUTS (RRID:SCR_000653) | GONUTS | data or information resource, database, narrative resource, wiki | A wiki where users of the Gene Ontology can contribute and view notes about how specific GO terms are used. GONUTS can also be used as a GO term browser, or to search for GO annotations of specific genes from included organisms. The rationale for this wiki is based on helping new users of the gene ontology understand and use it. The GONUTS wiki is not an official product of the the Gene Ontology consortium. The GO consortium has a public wiki at their website, http://wiki.geneontology.org/. Maintaining the ontology involves many decisions to carefully choose terms and relationships. These decisions are currently made at GO meetings and via online discussion using the GO mailing lists and the Sourceforge curator request tracker. However, it is difficult for someone starting to use GO to understand these decisions. Some insight can be obtained by mining the tracker, the listservs and the minutes of GO meetings, but this is difficult, as these discussions are often dispersed and sometimes don't contain the GO accessions in the relevant messages. Wikis provide a way to create collaboratively written documentation for each GO term to explain how it should be used, how to satisfy the true path requirement, and whether an annotation should be placed at a different level. In addition, the wiki pages provide a discussion space, where users can post questions and discuss possible changes to the ontology. GONUTS is currently set up so anyone can view or search, but only registered users can edit or add pages. Currently registered users can create new users, and we are working to add at least one registered user for each participating database (So far we have registered users at EcoliHub, EcoCyc, GOA, BeeBase, SGD, dictyBase, FlyBase, WormBase, TAIR, Rat Genome Database, ZFIN, MGI, UCL and AgBase... | ontology or annotation browser, ontology or annotation search engine, ontology or annotation editor, protein |

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 |
