Proper citation: MEDEA (RRID:SCR_013356) Copy
A free program for multiple sequence alignment editing, visualisation and analysis that is available in two forms: a lightweight Java applet for use in web applications, and a powerful desktop application that employs web services for sequence alignment, secondary structure prediction and the retrieval of alignments, sequences, annotation and structures from public databases and any DAS 1.53 compliant sequence or annotation server. Use it to view and edit sequence alignments, analyse them with phylogenetic trees and principal components analysis (PCA) plots and explore molecular structures and annotation. Jalview has built in DNA, RNA and protein sequence and structure visualisation and analysis capabilities. It uses Jmol to view 3D structures, and VARNA to display RNA secondary structure.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/SRAdb.html
Software package to make access to the compilation of metadata from NCBI SRA and tools associated with submission, study, sample, experiment and run much more feasible. This is accomplished by parsing all the NCBI SRA metadata into a SQLite database that can be stored and queried locally. Fulltext search in the package make querying metadata very flexible and powerful. fastq and sra files can be downloaded for doing alignment locally. Beside ftp protocol, the SRAdb has funcitons supporting fastp protocol (ascp from Aspera Connect) for faster downloading large data files over long distance. The SQLite database is updated regularly as new data is added to SRA and can be downloaded at will for the most up-to-date metadata.

http://bioinf.comav.upv.es/seq_crumbs/
A collection of small sequence processing utilities that are modeled after the Unix command line text processing utilities so every utility tries to perform a specific task and most of them take a sequence file as input and create a new processed sequence file as output. This design encourages the assembly of the seq_crumbs utilities with Unix pipes to create complex pipelines.

http://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/casper.html
Software to infer alternative splicing from paired-end RNA-seq data. The model is based on counting paths across exons, rather than pairwise exon connections, and estimates the fragment size and start distributions non-parametrically, which improves estimation precision.

http://rulai.cshl.edu/splicetrap/
A statistic tool for quantifying exon inclusion ratios in paired-end RNA-seq data, with broad applications for the study of alternative splicing. SpliceTrap approaches to exon inclusion level estimation as a Bayesian inference problem. For every exon it quantifies the extent to which it is included, skipped or subjected to size variations due to alternative 3?/5? splice sites or Intron Retention. In addition, SpliceTrap can quantify alternative splicing within a single cellular condition, with no need of a background set of reads.

https://github.com/arq5x/bedtools2
A powerful toolset for genome arithmetic allowing one to address common genomics tasks such as finding feature overlaps and computing coverage. Bedtools allows one to intersect, merge, count, complement, and shuffle genomic intervals from multiple files in widely-used genomic file formats such as BAM, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF. While each individual tool is designed to do a relatively simple task (e.g., intersect two interval files), quite sophisticated analyses can be conducted by combining multiple bedtools operations on the UNIX command line.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/devel/bioc/html/ChIPXpress.html
A R package designed to improve ChIP-seq and ChIP-chip target gene ranking using publicly available gene expression data. It takes as input predicted transcription factor (TF) bound genes from ChIPx data and uses a corresponding database of gene expression profiles downloaded from NCBI GEO to rank the TF bound targets in order of which gene is most likely to be functional TF target.

https://code.google.com/p/softsearch/
A sensitive structural variant (SV) detection software tool for Illumina paired-end next-generation sequencing data. It simultaneously utilizes soft-clipping and read-pair strategies for detecting SVs to increase sensitivity. Soft clips are proxies for split-reads that indicate part of the read maps to the reference genome, but the other part is not localized at the same place (e.g. breakpoint spanning reads). Discordant read-pairs refer to a read and its mate, where the insert size is greater (or less than) the expected distribution of the dataset ? or ? where the mapping orientation of the reads is unexpected (e.g. both on the same strand). SoftSearch looks for areas with soft-clipping in the genome that have discordant read pairs supporting the anomaly. Once areas with both these conditions are identified, the read and mate information is extracted directly from the BAM file containing the discordant reads, obviating the need for time-consuming and error-prone complex alignment strategies. Only a small number of soft-masked bases discordant read-pairs are necessary to identify an SV, which on their own would not be sufficient to make an SV call, thus highlighting SoftSearch?s improved sensitivity. SoftSearch is well suited to be ?plugged in? to most sequence analysis workflows, since it requires standard file inputs, such as a BAM file using almost any aligner and a reference genome FASTA file. Because SoftSearch requires soft-masked bases, the only requirement is that the aligner must have this functionality, which is usually turned on by default by many standard aligners (e.g. BWA, Novoalign, etc).
