The COLT-Cancer database is a collection of shRNA dropout signatures profiles, covering ~16000 human genes, and derived from more than 70 Pancreatic, Ovarian and Breast human cancer cell-lines using the microarray detection platform developed in the COLT (CCBR-OICR Lentiviral Technology) facility at the Moffat Lab. All shRNA dropout profiles are freely available through download or queries via this website.

A set of simulation tools to generate synthetic next-generation sequencing reads. ART simulates sequencing reads by mimicking real sequencing process with empirical error models or quality profiles summarized from large recalibrated sequencing data. ART can also simulate reads using user own read error model or quality profiles. ART supports simulation of single-end, paired-end/mate-pair reads of three major commercial next-generation sequencing platforms: Illumina''''s Solexa, Roche''''s 454 and Applied Biosystems'''' SOLiD. ART can be used to test or benchmark a variety of method or tools for next-generation sequencing data analysis, including read alignment, de novo assembly, SNP and structure variation discovery. ART is implemented in C++ with optimized algorithms and is highly efficient in read simulation. ART outputs reads in the FASTQ format, and alignments in the ALN format. ART can also generate alignments in the SAM alignment or UCSC BED file format.

Database of Drosophila genetic and genomic information with information about stock collections and fly genetic tools. Gene Ontology (GO) terms are used to describe three attributes of wild-type gene products: their molecular function, the biological processes in which they play a role, and their subcellular location. Additionally, FlyBase accepts data submissions. FlyBase can be searched for genes, alleles, aberrations and other genetic objects, phenotypes, sequences, stocks, images and movies, controlled terms, and Drosophila researchers using the tools available from the "Tools" drop-down menu in the Navigation bar.

http://code.google.com/p/popoolation/
A collection of tools to facilitate population genetic studies of next generation sequencing data from pooled individuals. It builds upon open source tools (bwa, samtools) and uses standard file formats (gtf, sam, pileup) to ensure a wide compatibility. PoPoolation allows to calculate Tajima's Pi, Watterson's Theta and Tajima's D for reference sequences using a sliding window approach. Alternatively these population genetic estimators may be calculated for a set of genes (provided as gtf). One of the main challenges in population genomics is to identify regions of intererest on a genome wide scale. PoPoolation will greatly aid this task by allowing a fast and user friendly analysis of NGS data from DNA pools.
