Bambus Resource Report Resource Website |
Bambus (RRID:SCR_005068) | Bambus | software resource | 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. | scaffolding |

SLIDE Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
SLIDE (RRID:SCR_005137) | SLIDE | software resource | 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. |

RetroSeq Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
RetroSeq (RRID:SCR_005133) | RetroSeq | software resource | 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. | mobile element insertion, next-gen sequencing, bam, transposable element, genome, sequence |

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. | mutation, rna-seq, bio.tools |
