Philius Resource Report Resource Website |
Philius (RRID:SCR_004625) | Philius | analysis service resource, data analysis service, production service resource, service resource, software resource | Web server that predicts protein transmembrane topology and signal peptides. Hidden Markov models (HMM) have been successfully applied to the tasks of transmembrane protein topology prediction and signal peptide prediction. They expand upon this work by making use of the more powerful class of dynamic Bayesian networks (DBN). Their model, Philius, is inspired by a previously published HMM, Phobius, and combines a signal peptide sub-model with a transmembrane sub-model. They introduce a two-stage DBN decoder which combines the power of posterior decoding with the grammar constraints of Viterbi-style decoding. Philius also provides protein type, segment, and topology confidence metrics to aid in the interpretation of the predictions. | hidden markov model, protein type, segment, topology, confidence metric, prediction, protein, transmembrane, signal peptide, peptide, bio.tools |

ERANGE Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
ERANGE (RRID:SCR_005240) | ERANGE | software resource | Software for Mapping and Quantifying Mammalian Transcriptomes by RNA-Seq. Its functions are to (i) assign reads that map uniquely in the genome to their site of origin and, for reads that match equally well to several sites (''multireads''), assign them to their most likely site(s) of origin; (ii) detect splice-crossing reads and assign them to their gene of origin; (iii) organize reads that cluster together, but do not map to an already known exon, into candidate exons or parts of exons; and (iv) calculate the prevalence of transcripts from each known or newly proposed RNA, based on normalized counts of unique reads, spliced reads and multireads. The new candidate RNA regions produced can be thought of as ESTs, and, like ESTs, some are provisionally appended to existing gene models if they meet several additional criteria. Remaining unassigned candidate transcribed regions (labeled RNAFAR features) can then be used in conjunction with other confirming data to develop new or revised gene models. | transcriptome, rna-seq, bio.tools |
