Maintains and provides archival, retrieval and analytical resources for biological information. Central DDBJ resource consists of public, open-access nucleotide sequence databases including raw sequence reads, assembly information and functional annotation. Database content is exchanged with EBI and NCBI within the framework of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC). In 2011, DDBJ launched two new resources: DDBJ Omics Archive and BioProject. DOR is archival database of functional genomics data generated by microarray and highly parallel new generation sequencers. Data are exchanged between the ArrayExpress at EBI and DOR in the common MAGE-TAB format. BioProject provides organizational framework to access metadata about research projects and data from projects that are deposited into different databases.

http://www.nitrc.org/projects/penncnv

A free software tool for Copy Number Variation (CNV) detection from SNP genotyping arrays. Currently it can handle signal intensity data from Illumina and Affymetrix arrays. With appropriate preparation of file format, it can also handle other types of SNP arrays and oligonucleotide arrays. PennCNV implements a hidden Markov model (HMM) that integrates multiple sources of information to infer CNV calls for individual genotyped samples. It differs form segmentation-based algorithm in that it considered SNP allelic ratio distribution as well as other factors, in addition to signal intensity alone. In addition, PennCNV can optionally utilize family information to generate family-based CNV calls by several different algorithms. Furthermore, PennCNV can generate CNV calls given a specific set of candidate CNV regions, through a validation-calling algorithm.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on August 23,2022. A metagenomic open reading frame (ORF) finding tool for the prediction of protein coding genes in short, environmental DNA sequences with unknown phylogenetic origin. The resource is based on a two-stage machine learning approach that uses linear discriminants to extract features from the ORFs. An artificial neural network then combines the features and computes a gene probability for each ORF fragment.

http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~csuros/quadgt/

Software package for calling single-nucleotide variants in four sequenced genomes comprising a normal-tumor pair and the two parents. Genotypes are inferred using a joint model of parental variant frequencies, de novo germline mutations, and somatic mutations. The model quantifies the descent-by-modification relationships between the unknown genotypes by using a set of parameters in a Bayesian inference setting. Note that you can use it on any subset of the four related genomes, including parent-offspring trios, and normal-tumor pairs without parental samples.
