Open source software suite for cardiovascular simulation. It includes code for reading 3D images, segmenting structures, generating models and meshes, and modeling blood flow in deformable vessels. The suite also includes tools for physiologic boundary conditions, fluid structure interaction, and an accurate and efficient finite element Navier-Stokes solver. Commercial components have been used in the simulation process, and for these components, the project attempts to provide interfaces that allow substitution of open source components. The SimVascular project is derived from the ASPIRE2 software project and includes modified portions of PHASTA from RPI/SCOREC.

A software package that anayzes the structral details of RNA molecules through rapid quantification of a footprinting gel. By automating many of the steps involved in gel analysis, approximately one entire gel with thousands of bands can be quantified in less than 10 minutes using SAFA. In general, all the automated features have a manual override, such that even difficult or exceptional gels can be analyzed with the package.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on February 28,2023. Database of secondary structure assignments (and much more) for all protein entries in the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and the program that calculates DSSP entries from PDB entries. DSSP is distributed on a basis of trust and instructions are available on the site. * Precompiled executables are also available for Linux and Windows. (The Windows .exe file was compiled under Linux using Mingw32, has never seen a Windows environment and should thus be virus-free. Download the source if you want to be 100% sure.) Under Windows the DSSP output does not make it to the console, so redirect it to a file instead: dsspcmbi source.pdb destination.dssp > messages.txt * Several changes have been made to the DSSP program to solve problems with recent PDB files. These are documented in the source code. * FTP access to the DSSP files resides at the CMBI: ftp.cmbi.kun.nl/pub/molbio/data/dssp or ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/dssp/. If you have problems downloading the DSSP files, it is likely that your FTP program is not able to handle tens of thousands of files in one directory. In this case, install a proper FTP program, for example NCFTP. However, it is recommended that you download DSSP files with the rsync command.

https://github.com/ahmohamed/NetPathMiner
Software that implements a flexible module-based process flow for network path mining and visualization, which can be fully inte-grated with user-customized functions. It supports construction of various types of genome scale networks from three different pathway file formats (KGML, SBML and BioPAX), enabling its utility to most common pathway databases. In addition, it provides different visualization techniques to facilitate the analysis of even thousands of output paths.

https://github.com/GregoryFaust/samblaster
Software tool to mark duplicates and extract discordant and split reads from SAM files. This fast and flexible program for marking duplicates in read-id grouped paired-end SAM files can also optionally output discordant read pairs and/or split read mappings to separate SAM files, and/or unmapped/clipped reads to a separate FASTQ file. When marking duplicates, samblaster will require approximately 20MB of memory per 1M read pairs.

An efficient software tool for the local alignment of pyrosequencing reads produced by the GS FLX (454) Genome Analyzer technology against a reference genome sequence. The approach explores the characteristics of the data in re-sequencing applications and uses state of the art BWT-based indexing techniques combined with a flexible seed-based approach, leading to a fast and accurate algorithm which needs very little user parameterization. Although initially developed having this specific technology in mind, this software performs equally well on any other platform that can return its sequencing reads in the FASTA, FASTQ or SFF formats, including Illumina, Ion Torrent and Pacific Biosciences technologies.
