Database of morphological phenotypes caused by mutation of essential genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, it allows storing, retrieving, visualizing and data mining the quantitative single-cell measurements extracted from micrographs of the temperature-sensitive (ts) mutant cells. PhenoM allows users to rapidly search and retrieve raw images and their quantified morphological data for genes of interest. The database also provides several data-mining tools, including a PhenoBlast module for phenotypic comparison between mutant strains and a Gene Ontology module for functional enrichment analysis of gene sets showing similar morphological alterations. About one-fifth of the genes in the budding yeast are essential for haploid viability and cannot be functionally assessed using standard genetic approaches such as gene deletion. To facilitate genetic analysis of essential genes, we and others have assembled collections of yeast strains expressing temperature-sensitive (ts) alleles of essential genes. To explore the phenotypes caused by essential gene mutation we used a panel of genetically engineered fluorescent markers to explore the morphology of cells in the ts strain collection using high-throughput microscopy. The database contains quantitative measurements of 1,909,914 cells and 78,194 morphological images for 775 temperature-sensitive mutants spanning 491 different essential genes in permissive temperature (26* C) and restrictive temperature (32* C). The morphological images were generated by high-content screening (HCS) technology.

https://code.google.com/p/ibm-cbc-genomic-tools/
A flexible computational platform, comprising both a command-line set of tools and a C++ API, for the analysis and manipulation of high-throughput sequencing data such as DNA-seq, RNA-seq, ChIP-seq and MethylC-seq. It implements a variety of mathematical operations between sets of genomic regions thereby enabling the prototyping of computational pipelines that can address tasks from preprocessing and quality control to meta-analyses. The user can create average read profiles across transcriptional start sites or enhancer sites, quickly prototype customized peak discovery methods for ChIP-seq experiments, perform genome-wide statistical tests such as enrichment analyses, design controls via appropriate randomization schemes, among other applications. In addition to enabling rapid prototyping, the platform is designed to analyze large-datasets in a single-pass fashion in order to minimize memory and intermediate file requirements. The platform supports the widely used BED format to facilitate visualization as well as integration with existing platforms and pipelines such as Galaxy or BioConductor.

Software tool to generate a high resolution map of interaction sites between RNA-binding proteins and their targets. The algorithm utilizes the deep sequencing reads generated by the newly developed PAR-CLIP (Photoactivatable-Ribonucleoside-Enhanced Crosslinking and Immunoprecipitation) protocol. The use of photoactivatable nucleotides in the PAR-CLIP protocol results in a more efficient crosslinking between the RNA-binding protein and its target relative to other CLIP methods; in addition a nucleotide substitution occurs at the site of crosslinking during Illumina library preparation. PARalyzer utilizes this nucleotide substition in a kernel density estimate classifier to generate the high resolution set of Protein-RNA interaction sites.

Software for scanning reads from short-read sequenced genomes against a human breakpoint library to accurately identify structural variants (SVs). The library of breakpoints at nucleotide resolution were assembled from collating and standardizing ~2,000 published structural variants (SVs). For each breakpoint, its ancestral state (through comparison to primate genomes) was inferred and its mechanism of formation (e.g., nonallelic homologous recombination, NAHR).
