CTCFBSDB (RRID:SCR_002279) | CTCFBSDB, CTCFBSDB 2.0 | analysis service resource, data analysis service, data or information resource, database, production service resource, service resource |
A comprehensive collection of experimentally determined and computationally predicted CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) binding sites (CTCFBS) from the literature. The database is designed to facilitate the studies on insulators and their roles in demarcating functional genomic domains. The CTCFBS Prediction Tool allows users to scan sequences for the single best match to CTCF position weight matrices. Currently (March 2014), the database contains almost 15 million experimentally determined CTCF binding sites across several species. CTCF binding sites were collected from published papers containing CTCF binding sites identified using ChIPSeq or similar methods, data from the ENCODE project, and a set of approximately 100 manually curated binding sites identified by low-throughput experiments. Users can browse insulator sequence features, function annotations, genomic contexts including histone methylation profiles, flanking gene expression patterns and orthologous regions in other mammalian genomes. Users can also retrieve data by text search, sequence search and genomic range search. |

FR-HIT Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
FR-HIT (RRID:SCR_002181) | FR-HIT | software resource | An efficient fragment recruitment software program for next generation sequences against microbial reference genomes. It produces similar sensitivity of BLASTN, but runs at a 100 times higher speed. The algorithm adopts a seeding heuristic strategy with overlapping k-mer hashing to locate candidate matching blocks on the reference sequences, and then apply an effective filtering within the candidate blocks to filter out blocks that do not meet the minimum criteria for containing an alignment with specified parameters. For each candidate block that passed the filter, the best matching sub-regions between a candidate block and a read are determined, and used subsequently by the banded Smith-Waterman algorithm to carry out the actual alignment efficiently, which will finally verify if this can be a valid recruitment hit. | metagenomics, bioinformatics, sequence analysis, next-generation sequencing |
