Web server that predicts protein transmembrane topology and signal peptides. Hidden Markov models (HMM) have been successfully applied to the tasks of transmembrane protein topology prediction and signal peptide prediction. They expand upon this work by making use of the more powerful class of dynamic Bayesian networks (DBN). Their model, Philius, is inspired by a previously published HMM, Phobius, and combines a signal peptide sub-model with a transmembrane sub-model. They introduce a two-stage DBN decoder which combines the power of posterior decoding with the grammar constraints of Viterbi-style decoding. Philius also provides protein type, segment, and topology confidence metrics to aid in the interpretation of the predictions.

Software to recontruct abundances of known transcript forms from RNAseq data. The algorithm works by distributing the reads mapping to a given exonic region (or splice junction) among the transcripts including the exon (or splice junction). The input is the annotation of a reference transcriptome and reads from RNAseq technologies aligned to the genome. From the reference annotation, splicing graphs are produced and reads are mapped to corresponding edges in these graphs according to the position where they align in the genomic sequence. The resulting graph with edges labelled by the number of reads can be interpreted as a flow network where each transcript representing a transportation path from its start to its end and consequently each edge a possibly shared segment of transportation along which a certain number of reads per nucleotide -- i.e., a flux -- is observed. Given a density function of reads along a transcript, the expected participation of each transcript in an edge under consideration can be estimated. The basic idea is to cast back from these latter participations and the observed number of reads - allowing for a certain amount of noise - to the original transcript abundancies. To do so, a linear constraint is formalized for each edge, and an optimal solution for the complete set of constraints is found by a standard linear program solver.

http://phenom.ccbr.utoronto.ca/index.jsp
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.

STEPS is a package for exact stochastic simulation of reaction-diffusion systems in realistic, complex 3D geometries. Our core simulation algorithm is an efficient implementation of a variation on Gillespie''s SSA, extended to deal with diffusion of molecules over the elements of a 3D tetrahedral mesh. While it was mainly developed for simulating detailed models of neuronal signaling pathways in dendrites and around synapses, it is a general tool and can be used for studying any biochemical pathway in which spatial gradients and morphology are thought to play a role. We have implemented STEPS as a set of Python modules, which means STEPS users can use Python scripts to control all aspects of setting up the model, generating a mesh, controlling the simulation and generating and analyzing output. The core computational routines are still implemented as C/C++ extension modules for maximal speed of execution.
