A Flexible Model For Record Linkage

A small <720Kb C++ windows utility. That allows you to load Ancestry, 23andMe, FTDNA, or Genes for Good RAW DNA files search them, merge them. covert them to Ancestry format. But also create files from peer reviewed publications to compare with you loaded data to give your genetic disposition for the condition you have entered the data for an statistical risk if OR values are included. Included with the program are example files for Type 2 Diabetes risk factors. (As I have type 2 Diabetes so I could test the results).

The application of 2nd and 3rd generation High Throughput Sequencing (HTS) technologies has deeply reshaped experimental method to investigate microbial communities and obtain a taxonomic and functional profile of the invetigated community. Shotgun Metagenomics allow to quickly obtain a representation of microorganisms genomes characterizing a particular environment. In order to obtain a fast e reliable taxonomic classification of microorganisms genomes we present kMetaShot, an alignment-free taxonomic classifier based on k-mer/minimizer counting.

Open-source, platform-independent, community-supported software for describing and comparing microbial communities

Pairwise SNP distance matrix from a FASTA sequence alignment

Pangolin is a deep-learning based method for predicting splice site strengths (for details, see Zeng and Li, Genome Biology 2022). It is available as a command-line tool that can be run on a VCF or CSV file containing variants of interest; Pangolin will predict changes in splice site strength due to each variant, and return a file of the same format. Pangolin's models can also be used with custom sequences.

Prediction of mRNA subcellular localization using deep recurrent neural networks | RNATracker is a deep learning approach to learn mRNA subcellular localization patterns and to infer its outcome. It operates on the cDNA of the longest isoformic protein-coding transcript of a gene with or without its corresponding secondary structure annnotations. The learning targets are fractions/percentage of the transcripts being localized to a fixed set of subcellular compartments of interest

Bin Chicken - recovery of low abundance and taxonomically targeted metagenome assembled genomes (MAGs) through strategic coassembly

metagWGS is a workflow dedicated to the analysis of metagenomic data. It allows assembly, taxonomic annotation, and functional annotation of predicted genes. Since release 2.3, binning step with the possibility of cross-alignment is included. It has been developed in collaboration with several CATI BIOS4biol agents. Funded by Antiselfish Project (Labex Ecofect), ExpoMicoPig project (France Futur elevage) and SeqOccIn project (CPER - Occitanie Toulouse / FEDER), ATB_Biofilm funded by PNREST Anses, France genomique (ANR-10-INBS-09-08) and Resalab Ouest.

The snoBoard database compiles ribosomal RNA (rRNA) modifications, box C/D and box H/ACA snoRNA guides sequences for a number of species including Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc), Human (Hs), the plant Arabidopsis thaliana (At) and tomato Solanum lycopersicum (Sl). Mapped modifications are 2’-O methylation, pseudouridylation and other known modifications when available. The user interface allows the access to rRNA targets, mapped modifications and snoRNA guides under different views. Modifications can be accessed through a table (one line per modification), or mapped on their target RNA sequences and secondary structures. A comparative view allows to access to mapped sites conserved between a selected subset of species. Using the comparative view, it is possible to interrogate and visualize the conservation of target nucleotides sequences and modified sites. Information on modifications targets and snoRNA guides can be accessed by organism, snoRNA guide family and modification type.
