THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on February 23,2023. Software toolbox for rigid and nonrigid registration of images. elastix is open source software, based on the well-known Insight Segmentation and Registration Toolkit (ITK). The software consists of a collection of algorithms that are commonly used to solve (medical) image registration problems. The modular design of elastix allows the user to quickly configure, test, and compare different registration methods for a specific application. A command-line interface enables automated processing of large numbers of data sets, by means of scripting. A paper describing elastix contains more details: S. Klein, M. Staring, K. Murphy, M.A. Viergever, J.P.W. Pluim, elastix: a toolbox for intensity based medical image registration,; IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, vol. 29, no. 1, pp. 196 - 205, January 2010., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

http://purl.bioontology.org/ontology/IMGT-ONTOLOGY
Ontology for immunogenetics and immunoinformatics. Provides semantic specification of terms to be used in immunogenetics and immunoinformatics and manages related knowledge, thus allowing standardization for immunogenetics data from genome, proteome, genetics, two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) structures. Manages the knowledge through diverse facets relying on seven axioms, IDENTIFICATION, CLASSIFICATION, DESCRIPTION, NUMEROTATION, LOCALIZATION, ORIENTATION and OBTENTION. These axioms postulate that any object, any process and any relation can be identified, classified, described, numbered, localized and orientated, and the way it is obtained can be characterized. The axioms constitute the Formal IMGT-ONTOLOGY, also designated as IMGT-Kaleidoscope. As the same axioms can be used to generate concepts for multi-scale level approaches, the Formal IMGT-ONTOLOGY represents a paradigm for system biology ontologies, which need to identify, to classify, to describe, to number, to localize and to orientate objects, processes and relations at the molecule, cell, tissue, organ, organism or population levels. IMGT, the international ImMunoGeneTics information system, has been built on IMGT-ONTOLOGY. The version 1.0.2 of IMGT-ONTOLOGY includes the concepts of IDENTIFICATION and the concepts of CLASSIFICATION.

EVEX is a text mining resource built on top of PubMed abstracts and PubMed Central full texts. It contains over 40 million bio-molecular events among more than 76 million automatically extracted gene/protein name mentions. The text mining data further has been enriched with gene normalization results, allowing straightforward integration with external resources. Further, gene families from Ensembl and HomoloGene provide homology-based event generalizations. EVEX presents both direct and indirect associations between genes and proteins, enabling explorative browsing of relevant literature.

http://mafft.cbrc.jp/alignment/server/
Software package as multiple alignment program for amino acid or nucleotide sequences. Can align up to 500 sequences or maximum file size of 1 MB. First version of MAFFT used algorithm based on progressive alignment, in which sequences were clustered with help of Fast Fourier Transform. Subsequent versions have added other algorithms and modes of operation, including options for faster alignment of large numbers of sequences, higher accuracy alignments, alignment of non-coding RNA sequences, and addition of new sequences to existing alignments.

Database that provides a collection of transmembrane, monotopic and peripheral proteins from the Protein Data Bank whose spatial arrangements in the lipid bilayer have been calculated theoretically and compared with experimental data. The database allows analysis, sorting and searching of membrane proteins based on their structural classification, species, destination membrane, numbers of transmembrane segments and subunits, numbers of secondary structures and the calculated hydrophobic thickness or tilt angle with respect to the bilayer normal.

A webserver built on the Galaxy framework that enables the mining of sequence data for transcription factor binding sites. This tool suite was designed to aid in analysis of next-generation sequencing (NGS) data that uses a support vector machine (SVM) with kmer sequence features to identify predictive combinations of short transcription factor binding sites which determine the tissue specificity of the original NGS assay. While you may use datasets already available from Galaxy, you can upload your data using the ''Get Data'' Tool. The tool can upload data from a variety of locations.
