http://bioportal.bioontology.org/annotator

A Web service that annotates textual metadata (e.g. journal abstract) with relevant ontology concepts. NCBO uses this Web service to annotate resources in the NCBO Resource Index. They also provide this Web service as a stand-alone service for users. This Web service can be accessed through BioPortal or used directly in your software. Currently, the annotation workflow is based on syntactic concept recognition (using concept names and synonyms) and on a set of semantic expansion algorithms that leverage the semantics in ontologies (e.g., is_a relations). Their service methodology leverages ontologies to create annotations of raw text and returns them using semantic web standards.

http://services.nbic.nl/copub/portal/

Text mining tool that detects co-occuring biomedical concepts in abstracts from the MedLine literature database. It allows batch input of multiple human, mouse or rat genes and produces lists of keywords from several biomedical thesauri that are significantly correlated with the set of input genes. These lists link to Medline abstracts in which the co-occurring input genes and correlated keywords are highlighted. Furthermore, CoPub can graphically visualize differentially expressed genes and over-represented keywords in a network, providing detailed insight in the relationships between genes and keywords, and revealing the most influential genes as highly connected hubs.

http://microbesonline.org/

MicrobesOnline is designed specifically to facilitate comparative studies on prokaryotic genomes. It is an entry point for operon, regulons, cis-regulatory and network predictions based on comparative analysis of genomes. The portal includes over 1000 complete genomes of bacteria, archaea and fungi and thousands of expression microarrays from diverse organisms ranging from model organisms such as Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae to environmental microbes such as Desulfovibrio vulgaris and Shewanella oneidensis. To assist in annotating genes and in reconstructing their evolutionary history, MicrobesOnline includes a comparative genome browser based on phylogenetic trees for every gene family as well as a species tree. To identify co-regulated genes, MicrobesOnline can search for genes based on their expression profile, and provides tools for identifying regulatory motifs and seeing if they are conserved. MicrobesOnline also includes fast phylogenetic profile searches, comparative views of metabolic pathways, operon predictions, a workbench for sequence analysis and integration with RegTransBase and other microbial genome resources. The next update of MicrobesOnline will contain significant new functionality, including comparative analysis of metagenomic sequence data. Programmatic access to the database, along with source code and documentation, is available at http://microbesonline.org/programmers.html.

http://www.scrm.uzh.ch/biobank.html

The SCRM-CTBB offers state-of-the-art infrastructure and technologies (e.g. cryogenic work bench, semiautomatic cryogenic storage system, uninterrupted cooling chain) and is structured into two areas, including research and a GMP/GCP regulated therapeutic applications. Research: For pre-clinical studies, the SCRM-CTBB provides researchers guidance regarding cell and tissue cryo-preservation, comprising registration, handling, storage and distribution. In order to ensure complete traceability on samples and belonging information all processes are controlled by a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and Quality Assurance (QA) system. The SCRM Biobank is designed to create database that allows connection with other biobanks nationally and internationally. This meta-data file will enable a unique scientific resource for interdisciplinary research. For every new study a contract is established describing the study and the disposition rights. Assistance in writing Biobank Agreements (BAs) and Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs) is provided. Therapeutical applications: As a new feature, apart from research, the SCRM Biobank enables the asservation and preservation of cells and tissues under GMP conditions for later therapeutic use. A special focus will be on a conceptional combination of private and public umbilical cord blood banking (hybrid banking), which allows autologous and/or allogeneic cell applications.

http://amide.sourceforge.net/index.html

Software tool for viewing, analyzing, and registering volumetric medical imaging data sets. It has been written on top of GTK+ and runs on any system that supports this toolkit (Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, etc.). The program incorporates automatic non-orthogonal data reslicing, allowing multiple data set to be fused without imposed constraints on the dimensions, anisotrophy, or voxel sizes of the data. Additional features include 3D ROI (ellipses, cylinders, boxes, and isocontours), multi-slice viewing, volume rendering, and data importing through the (X)MedCon library.

http://www.seqexpress.com/

A comprehensive analysis and visualization software package for gene expression experiments that provides: a number of clustering and analysis techniques; integrated gene expression and analysis result visualizations, integration with the Gene Expression Omnibus; and an optional data sharing architecture. GO is used to assign functional enrichment scores to clusters, using a combination of specially developed techniques and general statistical methods. These results can be explored using the in built ontology browsing tool or through the generated web pages. SeqExpress also supports numerous data transformation, projection, visualization, file export/import, searching, integration (with R), and clustering options.

http://www.ch.embnet.org/software/COILS_form.html

COILS is a program that compares a sequence to a database of known parallel two-stranded coiled-coils and derives a similarity score. By comparing this score to the distribution of scores in globular and coiled-coil proteins, the program then calculates the probability that the sequence will adopt a coiled-coil conformation.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/gsa-snp/

A tool for the gene-set (or pathway) analysis of a genome-wide association study result. It accepts a genome-wide list of SNPs and their association P-values. It summarizes the SNP P-values into nearby genes. The gene-by-gene summary results are then further summarized by gene-sets such as Gene Ontology, KEGG pathways, or user-created gene-sets. Various standardization and statistical tests can be performed and the resulting gene-sets that pass a significance level after multiple-testing correction are reported. The tool is written in Java and is available as a standalone version.
