A command line software tool for accurate placing of the nucleosomes using a Modified Gaussian Mixture Model. It was designed to resolve overlapping nucleosomes and extract extra information (fuzziness, probability, etc.) of nucleosome placement. To achieve this goal the tool clusters the input tags according to Nucleosome Model (see the paper for detailed description) using EM learning process. The tool is written in C++. There are no special requirements except for g++ compiler and *nix environment to compile and use the tool. It was checked to compile using g++ compiler under Ubuntu 11.04 and Mac OS X 10.6

Software to identify genomic regions enriched in a variety of ChIP-seq and related next-generation sequencing experiments (DNA-seq), calling both broad and narrow modes of enrichment across a range of signal-to-noise ratios. ZINBA models and accounts for factors that co-vary with background or experimental signal, such as G/C content, and identifies enrichment in genomes with complex local copy number variations. ZINBA provides a single unified framework for analyzing DNA-seq experiments in challenging genomic contexts.

A webserver built on the Galaxy framework that enables the mining of sequence data for transcription factor binding sites. This tool suite was designed to aid in analysis of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data that uses a support vector machine (SVM) with kmer sequence features to identify predictive combinations of short transcription factor binding sites which determine the tissue specificity of the original NGS assay. While you may use datasets already available from Galaxy, you can upload your data using the ''Get Data'' Tool. The tool can upload data from a variety of locations.

Integrated public bioinformatics resource to support genomic, proteomic and systems biology research and scientific studies. Provides databases and protein sequence analysis tools to scientific community, including Protein Sequence Database which grew out from the Atlas of Protein Sequence and Structure. Conducts research in biomedical text mining and ontology, computational systems biology, and bioinformatics cyberinfrastructure. In 2002 PIR, along with its international partners, EBI (European Bioinformatics Institute) and SIB (Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics), were awarded a grant from NIH to create UniProt, a single worldwide database of protein sequence and function, by unifying the PIR-PSD, Swiss-Prot, and TrEMBL databases. Currently, PIR major activities include: i) UniProt (Universal Protein Resource) development, ii) iProClass protein data integration and ID mapping, iii) PRO protein ontology, and iv) iProLINK protein literature mining and ontology development. The FTP site provides free download for iProClass, PIRSF, and PRO.

Curated, open-source, integrated data resource for comparative functional genomics in crops and model plant species to facilitate the study of cross-species comparisons using information generated from projects supported by public funds. It currently hosts annotated whole genomes in over two dozen plant species and partial assemblies for almost a dozen wild rice species in the Ensembl browser, genetic and physical maps with genes, ESTs and QTLs locations, genetic diversity data sets, structure-function analysis of proteins, plant pathways databases (BioCyc and Plant Reactome platforms), and descriptions of phenotypic traits and mutations. The web-based displays for phenotypes include the Genes and Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) modules. Sequence based relationships are displayed in the Genomes module using the genome browser adapted from Ensembl, in the Maps module using the comparative map viewer (CMap) from GMOD, and in the Proteins module displays. BLAST is used to search for similar sequences. Literature supporting all the above data is organized in the Literature database. In addition, Gramene now hosts a variety of web services including a Distributed Annotation Server (DAS), BLAST and a public MySQL database. Twice a year, Gramene releases a major build of the database and makes interim releases to correct errors or to make important updates to software and/or data. Additionally you can access Gramene through an FTP site.
