A software package based on the Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) map-reduce framework for genotyping and accurate DNA methylation calling in bisulfite treated massively parallel sequencing (Bisulfite-seq, NOMe-seq, RRBS and any other bisulfite treated sequencing) with Illumina directional library protocol. It contains the following key features: * Call and summarize methylation of any cytosine context provided (CpG, CHH, CHG, GCH et.al.); * Work for single end and paired-end data; * Accurtae variant detection. Enable base quality recalibration and indel calling in bisulfite sequencing; * Based on Java map-reduce framework, allow multi-thread computing. Cross-platform; * Allow multiple output format, detailed VCF files, CpG haplotype reads file for mono-allelic methylation analysis, simplified bedGraph, wig and bed format for visualization in UCSC genome broswer and IGV browser. BisSNP uses bayesian inference with locus specific methylation probabilities and bisulfite conversion rate of different cytosine context(not only CpG, CHH, CHG in Bisulfite-seq, but also GCH et.al. in other bisulfite treated sequencing) to determine genotypes and methylation levels simultaneously., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

http://code.google.com/p/distmap/
A user-friendly software pipeline designed to map short reads in a MapReduce framework on a local Hadoop cluster. It is designed to be easily implemented by researchers who do not have expert knowledge of bioinformatics. As it does not have any dependencies, it provides full flexibility and control to the user. The user can use any version of a compatible mapper and any reference genome assembly. There is no need to maintain the mapper, reference or DistMap source code on each of the slaves (nodes) in the Hadoop cluster, making maintenance extremely easy.

http://www.well.ox.ac.uk/project-stampy
A software package for the mapping of short reads from illumina sequencing machines onto a reference genome. It''s recommended for most workflows, including those for genomic resequencing, RNA-Seq and Chip-seq. Stampy excels in the mapping of reads containing that contain sequence variation relative to the reference, in particular for those containing insertions or deletions. It can map reads from a highly divergent species to a reference genome for instance. Stampy achieves high sensitivity and speed by using a fast hashing algorithm and a detailed statistical model. Stampy has the following features: * Maps single, paired-end and mate pair Illumina reads to a reference genome * Fast: about 20 Gbase per hour in hybrid mode (using BWA) * Low memory footprint: 2.7 Gb shared memory for a 3Gbase genome * High sensitivity for indels and divergent reads, up to 10-15% * Low mapping bias for reads with SNPs * Well calibrated mapping quality scores * Input: Fastq and Fasta; gzipped or plain * Output: SAM, Maq''s map file * Optionally calculates per-base alignment posteriors * Optionally processes part of the input * Handles reads of up to 4500 bases

MMMDB, Mouse Multiple tissue Metabolome DataBase, is a freely available metabolomic database containing a collection of metabolites measured from multiple tissues from single mice. The datases are collected using a single instrument and not integrated from literatures, which is useful for capturing the holistic overview of large metabolomic pathway. Currently data from cerabra, cerebella, thymus, spleen, lung, liver, kidney, heart, pancreas, testis, and plasma are provided. Non-targeted analyses were performed by capillary electropherograms time-of-flight mass spectrometry (CE-TOFMS) and, therefore, both identified metabolites and unknown (without matched standard) peaks were uploaded to this database. Not only quantified concentration but also processed raw data such as electropherogram, mass spectrometry, and annotation (such as isotope and fragment) are provided.

Online GEne Essentiality database containing genes that were tested experimentally for essentiality and their features; it also provides a set of tools to systematically explore and analyze these data. The main purpose of this project is to better understand gene essentiality by facilitating the comparisons of the differences and similarities between essential and non-essential genes. This is achieved by collecting not only experimentally tested essential and non-essential genes, but also associated gene features such as expression profiles, duplication status, conservation across species, evolutionary origins and involvement in embryonic development. We focus on large-scale experiments and complement our data with text-mining results. Genes are organized into data sets according to their sources. Genes with variable essentiality status across data sets are tagged as conditionally essential, highlighting the complex interplay between gene functions and environments. Linked tools allow the user to compare gene essentiality among different gene groups, or compare features of essential genes to non-essential genes, and visualize the results. Why is it different from existing databases? * we included both essential and non-essential genes so that we could better understand the gene essentiality by comparing the similarities and differences between the two gene sets; * we compiled a list of features for each gene, including whether they are duplicates or involved in development, the number of other homologous genes in the same genome, as well as their earliest expression stages during development. These features are keys to understand the essentiality of genes; * we also provide a set of tools to explore our data and visualize the results. For example, users can simply divide genes into two groups according to whether they are duplicates, calculate the proportion of essential genes (PE%) in each group and then visualize the results in a bar plot; or they can classify genes into multiple groups according to their earliest expression stages during evolution, compare the essentiality of genes that were expressed earlier with those were latter, and plot the results in a line chart.
