SAMBLASTER (RRID:SCR_000468) | software resource | 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. | standalone software, c++, bio.tools |

TAPyR Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
TAPyR (RRID:SCR_000588) | software resource | 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. | gs flx, genome analyzer, bwt, fasta, fastq, sff formats, pyrosequencing reads, bio.tools |

GERP Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
GERP (RRID:SCR_000563) | GERP | software resource | Software that identifies constrained elements in multiple alignments by quantifying substitution deficits. These deficits represent substitutions that would have occurred if the element were neutral DNA, but did not occur because the element has been under functional constraint. We refer to these deficits as Rejected Substitutions. Rejected substitutions are a natural measure of constraint that reflects the strength of past purifying selection on the element. GERP estimates constraint for each alignment column; elements are identified as excess aggregations of constrained columns. A false-positive rate (which is user-settable) is calculated using "shuffled" alignments in which the order of columns is randomized., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.
