Alien hunter Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Alien hunter (RRID:SCR_004575) | software application, software resource | Alien_hunter is an application for the prediction of putative Horizontal Gene Transfer (HGT) events with the implementation of Interpolated Variable Order Motifs (IVOMs). This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. An IVOM approach exploits compositional biases using variable order motif distributions and captures more reliably the local composition of a sequence compared to fixed-order methods. Optionally the predictions can be parsed into a 2-state 2nd order Hidden Markov Model (HMM), in a change-point detection framework, to optimize the localization of the boundaries of the predicted regions. The predictions (embl format) can be automatically loaded into the freely available Artemis genome viewer. |

Eigensoft Resource Report Resource Website 1000+ mentions Issue |
Eigensoft (RRID:SCR_004965) | EIGENSOFT | software resource, software toolkit | EIGENSOFT package combines functionality from our population genetics methods (Patterson et al. 2006) and our EIGENSTRAT stratification method (Price et al. 2006). The EIGENSTRAT method uses principal components analysis to explicitly model ancestry differences between cases and controls along continuous axes of variation; the resulting correction is specific to a candidate marker''s variation in frequency across ancestral populations, minimizing spurious associations while maximizing power to detect true associations. The EIGENSOFT package has a built-in plotting script and supports multiple file formats and quantitative phenotypes. Source code, documentation and executables for using EIGENSOFT 3.0 on a Linux platform can be downloaded. New features of EIGENSOFT 3.0 include supporting either 32-bit or 64-bit Linux machines, a utility to merge different data sets, a utility to identify related samples (accounting for population structure), and supporting multiple file formats for EIGENSTRAT stratification correction. | population genetics, genetics, stratification, variation |

mitopred Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
mitopred (RRID:SCR_006135) | MITOPRED | analysis service resource, data analysis service, production service resource, service resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 16, 2013. It predicts nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins from all eukaryotic species including plants. Prediction is based on the occurrence patterns of Pfam domains (version 16.0) in different cellular locations, amino acid composition and pI value differences between mitochondrial and non-mitochondrial locations. Additionally, you may download MITOPRED predictions for complete proteomes. Re-calculated predictions are instantly accessible for proteomes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila, Homo sapiens, Mus musculus and Arabidopsis species as well as all the eukaryotic sequences in the Swiss-Prot and TrEMBL databases. Queries, at different confidence levels, can be made through four distinct options: (i) entering Swiss-Prot/TrEMBL accession numbers; (ii) uploading a local file with such accession numbers; (iii) entering protein sequences; (iv) uploading a local file containing protein sequences in FASTA format. The Mitopred algorithm works based on the differences in the Pfam domain occurrence patters and amino acid composition differences in different cellular compartments. Location specific Pfam domains have been determined from the entire eukaryotic set of Swissprot database. Similarly, differences in the amino acid composition between mitochondrial and non-mitochondrial sequences were pre-calculated. This information is used to calculate location-specific amino acid weights that are used to calculate amino acid score. Similarly, pI average values of the N-terminal 25 residues in different cellular location were also determined. This knowledge-base is accessed by the program during execution. | yeast, c. elegans, drosophila, mouse, human, arabidopsis, bio.tools |
