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. Documented on September 16,2025.

https://github.com/pmelsted/BFCounter
Software program for counting k-mers in DNA sequence data. It identifies all the k-mers that occur more than once in a DNA sequence data set using a Bloom filter, a probabilistic data structure that stores all the observed k-mers implicitly in memory with greatly reduced memory requirements.

http://bioportal.bioontology.org/annotator
A Web service that annotates textual metadata (e.g. journal abstract) with relevant ontology concepts. NCBO uses this Web service to annotate resources in the NCBO Resource Index. They also provide this Web service as a stand-alone service for users. This Web service can be accessed through BioPortal or used directly in your software. Currently, the annotation workflow is based on syntactic concept recognition (using concept names and synonyms) and on a set of semantic expansion algorithms that leverage the semantics in ontologies (e.g., is_a relations). Their service methodology leverages ontologies to create annotations of raw text and returns them using semantic web standards.

https://web.stanford.edu/group/pritchardlab/structure.html
Software package for using multi locus genotype data to investigate population structure. Used for inferring presence of distinct populations, assigning individuals to populations, studying hybrid zones, identifying migrants and admixed individuals, and estimating population allele frequencies in situations where many individuals are migrants or admixed. Can be applied to most of commonly used genetic markers, including SNPS, microsatellites, RFLPs and Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphisms.
Proper citation: STRUCTURE (RRID:SCR_017637) Copy
A curated database that provides comprehensive integrated biological information for Saccharomyces cerevisiae along with search and analysis tools to explore these data. SGD allows researchers to discover functional relationships between sequence and gene products in fungi and higher organisms. The SGD also maintains the S. cerevisiae Gene Name Registry, a complete list of all gene names used in S. cerevisiae which includes a set of general guidelines to gene naming. Protein Page provides basic protein information calculated from the predicted sequence and contains links to a variety of secondary structure and tertiary structure resources. Yeast Biochemical Pathways allows users to view and search for biochemical reactions and pathways that occur in S. cerevisiae as well as map expression data onto the biochemical pathways. Literature citations are provided where available.

http://amide.sourceforge.net/index.html
Software tool for viewing, analyzing, and registering volumetric medical imaging data sets. It has been written on top of GTK+ and runs on any system that supports this toolkit (Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, etc.). The program incorporates automatic non-orthogonal data reslicing, allowing multiple data set to be fused without imposed constraints on the dimensions, anisotrophy, or voxel sizes of the data. Additional features include 3D ROI (ellipses, cylinders, boxes, and isocontours), multi-slice viewing, volume rendering, and data importing through the (X)MedCon library.
