Downloadable data set designed to assess the performance of both multiple and pairwise (protein) sequence alignment algorithms, and is extremely easy to use. Currently, the database contains 2 sets, each consisting of a number of subsets with related sequences. It''s main features are: * Covers the entire known fold space (SCOP classification), with subsets provided by the ASTRAL compendium * All structures have high quality, with 100% resolved residues * Structure alignments have been derived carefully, using both SOFI and CE, and Relaxed Transitive Alignment * At most 25 sequences in each subset to avoid overrepresentation of large folds* Automated running, archiving and scoring of programs through a few Perl scripts The Twilight Zone set is divided into sequence groups that each represent a SCOP fold. All sequences within a group share a pairwise Blast e-value of at least 1, for a theoretical database size of 100 million residues. Sequence similarity is thus very low, between 0-25% identity, and a (traceable) common evolutionary origin cannot be established between most pairs even though their structures are (distantly) similar. This set therefore represents the worst case scenario for sequence alignment, which unfortunately is also the most frequent one, as most related sequences share less than 25% identity. The Superfamilies set consists of groups that each represent a SCOP superfamily, and therefore contain sequences with a (putative) common evolutionary origin. However, they share at most 50% identity, which is still challenging for any sequence alignment algorithm. Frequently, alignments are performed to establish whether or not sequences are related. To benchmark this, a second version of both the Twilight Zone and the Superfamilies set is provided, in which to each alignment problem a number of false positives, i.e. sequences not related to the original set, are added. Database specifications: * Current version: 1.65 (concurrent with PDB, SCOP and ASTRAL) * Twilight Zone set (with false positives): 209 groups, 1740 (3280) sequences, 10667 (44056) related pairs * Superfamilies set (with false positives): 425 groups, 3280 (6526) sequences, 19092 (79095) related pairs

BioPerl is a community effort to produce Perl code which is useful in biology. This toolkit of perl modules is useful in building bioinformatics solutions in Perl. It is built in an object-oriented manner so that many modules depend on each other to achieve a task. The collection of modules in the bioperl-live repository consist of the core of the functionality of bioperl. Additionally auxiliary modules for creating graphical interfaces (bioperl-gui), persistent storage in RDMBS (bioperl-db), running and parsing the results from hundreds of bioinformatics applications (Run package), software to automate bioinformatic analyses (bioperl-pipeline) are all available as Git modules in our repository. The BioPerl toolkit provides a library of hundreds of routines for processing sequence, annotation, alignment, and sequence analysis reports. It often serves as a bridge between different computational biology applications assisting the user to construct analysis pipelines. This chapter illustrates how BioPerl facilitates tasks such as writing scripts summarizing information from BLAST reports or extracting key annotation details from a GenBank sequence record. BioPerl includes modules written by Sohel Merchant of the GO Consortium for parsing and manipulating OBO ontologies. Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible
