Dante
github.com/dante-tr/dante-trDANTE is a software tool for genotyping and characterizing tandem repeats (TRs) from both second- and third-generation sequencing data. It supports the analysis of short-read massively parallel sequencing (sr-MPS) and long-read massively parallel sequencing (lr-MPS), enabling accurate repeat characterization across a wide range of loci. A key feature of DANTE is its ability to determine genotypes at nucleotide resolution, including the characterization and phasing of complex repeat motifs. For sr-MPS data, the tool determines allele size and sequence composition of alleles for which spanning reads are generated. In addition, it identifies alleles that exceed the sequencing read length by estimating their presence from partial read evidence and supports the visualisation of the sequence composition of partial reads. For lr-MPS data, where complete repeat regions are typically sequenced, DANTE determines the allele size and sequence composition of identified alleles.

BCFtools is a set of utilities that manipulate variant calls in the Variant Call Format (VCF) and its binary counterpart BCF. All commands work transparently with both VCFs and BCFs, both uncompressed and BGZF-compressed.
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.
A Python script that converts positional information from a SAM dataset into interval format with 0-based start and 1-based end. CIGAR string of SAM format is used to compute the end coordinate.
Deterministic, rule-based variant interpretation platform for clinical genetics laboratories. Automates ACMG/AMP 2015 classification using a Bayesian point-based framework (Tavtigian et al. 2018) with BayesDel ClinGen SVI-calibrated thresholds (Pejaver et al. 2022). Integrates 8 reference databases (gnomAD v4.1, ClinVar, dbNSFP 4.9c, SpliceAI, gnomAD Constraint, HPO, ClinGen, Ensembl VEP). Analyzes nuclear and mtDNA variants, structural and copy-number variants (SV/CNV), with trio/family and cohort analysis. Supports HPO-based phenotype matching, biomedical literature mining across 2M+ PubMed publications, and structured clinical report generation. AI assists in evidence synthesis but does not make classification decisions. EU-hosted on dedicated infrastructure in Helsinki, Finland (GDPR-compliant).
SeqBench is a browser-based workbench of 82 tools for molecular cloning, primer design and sequence analysis: nearest-neighbour melting temperature, oligo dimer and hairpin screening, in-silico PCR, site-directed mutagenesis, restriction mapping, Gibson, Golden Gate and restriction-ligation assembly simulation, plasmid annotation and backbone identification, CRISPR gRNA, HDR donor and base editing design, codon optimisation and CAI, pairwise and multiple alignment, RNA secondary structure, protein properties, Sanger ab1 traces, HGVS conversion and variant annotation. It verifies constructs as well as designing them: re-deriving an assembly from its stated parts and diffing it against the claimed product, aligning sequencing reads back onto a claimed reference, and scoring Golden Gate overhang sets against published ligation-fidelity data. Batch FASTA processing, multi-tool workflows, a conversational tool-calling interface (SeqBench-GPT), a REST API and an MCP server are included.
