http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/amos/index.php?title=Bambus2

Software for scaffolding to address some of the challenges encountered when analyzing metagenomes. Scaffolding represents the task of ordering and orienting contigs by incorporating additional information about their relative placement along the genome. While most other scaffolders are closely tied to a specific assembly program, Bambus accepts the output from most current assemblers and provides the user with great flexibility in choosing the scaffolding parameters. In particular, Bambus is able to accept contig linking data other than specified by mate-pairs. Such sources of information include alignment to a reference genome (Bambus can directly use the output of MUMmer), physical mapping data, or information about gene synteny.

http://sri.com/

Independent, nonprofit research institute conducting client sponsored research and development for government agencies, commercial businesses, foundations, and other organizations. SRI also brings its innovations to the marketplace by licensing its intellectual property and creating new ventures. SRI was founded as Stanford Research Institute in 1946 by a group of West Coast industrialists and Stanford University. SRI formally separated from the University in 1970, and we changed our name to SRI International in 1977.

https://sites.google.com/site/jingyijli/SLIDE.zip

Software package that takes exon boundaries and RNA-Seq data as input to discern the set of mRNA isoforms that are most likely to present in an RNA-Seq sample. It is based on a linear model with a design matrix that models the sampling probability of RNA-Seq reads from different mRNA isoforms. To tackle the model unidentifiability issue, SLIDE uses a modified Lasso procedure for parameter estimation. Compared with deterministic isoform assembly algorithms (e.g., Cufflinks), SLIDE considers the stochastic aspects of RNA-Seq reads in exons from different isoforms and thus has increased power in detecting more novel isoforms. Another advantage of SLIDE is its flexibility of incorporating other transcriptomic data such as RACE, CAGE, and EST into its model to further increase isoform discovery accuracy. SLIDE can also work downstream of other RNA-Seq assembly algorithms to integrate newly discovered genes and exons. Besides isoform discovery, SLIDE sequentially uses the same linear model to estimate the abundance of discovered isoforms.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/viralfusionseq/

A versatile high-throughput sequencing (HTS) tool for discovering viral integration events and reconstruct fusion transcripts at single-base resolution. It combines soft-clipping information, read-pair analysis, and targeted de novo assembly to discover and annotate viral-human fusion events. A simple yet effective empirical statistical model is used to evaluate the quality of fusion breakpoints. Minimal user defined parameters are required.

https://github.com/tk2/RetroSeq

A tool for discovery and genotyping of transposable element variants (TEVs) (also known as mobile element insertions) from next-gen sequencing reads aligned to a reference genome in BAM format. The goal is to call TEVs that are not present in the reference genome but present in the sample that has been sequenced. It should be noted that RetroSeq can be used to locate any class of viral insertion in any species where whole-genome sequencing data with a suitable reference genome is available. RetroSeq is a two phase process, the first being the read pair discovery phase where discorandant mate pairs are detected and assigned to a TE class (Alu, SINE, LINE, etc.) by using either the annotated TE elements in the reference and/or aligned with Exonerate to the supplied library of viral sequences.

https://github.com/cwhelan/cloudbreak

Software providing a Hadoop-based genomic structural variation (SV) caller for Illumina paired-end DNA sequencing data. It contains a full pipeline for aligning data in the form of FASTQ files using alignment pipelines that generate many possible mappings for every read, in the Hadoop framework. It then contains Hadoop jobs for computing genomic features from the alignments, and for calling insertion and deletion variants from those features.

http://yost.genetics.utah.edu/software.php

A software analysis pipeline for mapping mutations using RNA-seq that works without parental strain information, without the requirement of a pre-existing snp map of the organism, and without erroneous assumptions that recombination occurs at the same frequency across the genome. In addition, it compensates for the considerable amount of noise in RNA-seq datasets and simultaneously identifies the region where the mutation lies and generates a list of putative coding region mutations in the linked genomic segment. MMAPPR can utilize RNA-seq datasets from isolated tissues or whole organisms that are often generated for phenotypic analysis and gene network analysis in novel mutants.

The M. J. Murdock Charitable Trust seeks to enrich the quality of life in the Pacific Northwest by providing grants and enrichment programs to non-profit organizations that seek to strengthen the region''s educational, spiritual, and cultural base in creative and sustainable ways. In addition to a special interest in education and scientific research, the Trust partners with a wide variety of organizations that serve the arts, public affairs, health and medicine, human services, leadership development, and persons with disabilities. Eligibility for scientific research grants is limited. Select public research universities and medical institutes located within the five-state region (Pacific Northwest: Alaska, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana) are typically considered for funding. The Trust prefers requests for projects in the natural sciences where the main objective is the acquisition of new knowledge. However, requests for research in engineering and medicine are also eligible. Training students in conducting research is an important consideration.

http://www.omicsoft.com/fusionmap/

An efficient fusion aligner which aligns reads spanning fusion junctions directly to the genome without prior knowledge of potential fusion regions. It detects and characterizes fusion junctions at base-pair resolution. FusionMap can be applied to detect fusion junctions in both single- and paired-end dataset from either gDNA-Seq or RNA-Seq studies. FusionMap runs under both Windows and Linux (requiring MONO) environments. Although it can run on 32 bit machine, it is recommended to run on 64-bit machine with 8GB RAM or more. If you have an ArrayStudio License, you can run the fusion detection easily through its GUI.
