THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 23, 2022. The South African National Bioinformatics Institute delivers biomedical discovery appropriate to both international and African context. Researchers at SANBI perform the highest level of research and provide excellence in education. Research at SANBI has set well recognized milestones in the field of computational biology. The tools and techniques used have not only been developed but also implemented across heterogeneous domains of advanced research. Local and international efforts have driven our discoveries. Until recently, the core of SANBIs research has focused upon gene expression biology. Methods developed and applied at SANBI revolve around a greater understanding of the underlying causes of diseases. SANBI approaches the problem by comparison of genes, genomes and transcriptomes. It uses computational gene expression biology to create novel biological insights and to provide biomarkers for experimental validation. It also performs analysis of human genome variation, transcriptional diversity on both the expression and splicing level and the unravelling of transcriptional regulatory networks. Resources - Hinv, STACKdb, Malaria resources and Trypanosome databases are available for on-line seaching. - SANBI offers WCD, STACKdb, stackPACK and eVOC and the eVOKE viewer as tools that can be downloaded. Sponsors: SANBI receives funding and support from a range of organisations in South Africa and Internationally. Organisations currently supporting SANBI include: South Africa * South African Medical Research Council * South African AIDS Vaccine Initiative * National Bioinformatics Network * National Research Foundation * Claude Leon Foundation * International Business Machines Inc. Europe * European Unions 6th Framework Programme * World Health Organization USA * US National Institutes of Health * Fogarty International Centre * Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research

http://sammeth.net/confluence/display/ASTA/2+-+Download

Tool that extracts and displays alternative splicing (AS) events from a given genomic annotation of exon-intron gene coordinates. By comparing all given transcripts, it detects the variations in their splicing structure and identifies all AS events (like exon skipping, alternate donor, etc) by assigning to each of them an AS code. It provides a visual summary of the AS landscape in the analyzed dataset, the possibility to browse the results on the UCSC website or to download them in GTF or ASTA format. You can use AStalavista for any genome by providing your own annotation set, the identifier of your gene(s) of interest, or analyze the AS landscape of reference annotation datasets like Gencode, RefSeq, Ensembl, FlyBase, etc.

http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~csuros/quadgt/

Software package for calling single-nucleotide variants in four sequenced genomes comprising a normal-tumor pair and the two parents. Genotypes are inferred using a joint model of parental variant frequencies, de novo germline mutations, and somatic mutations. The model quantifies the descent-by-modification relationships between the unknown genotypes by using a set of parameters in a Bayesian inference setting. Note that you can use it on any subset of the four related genomes, including parent-offspring trios, and normal-tumor pairs without parental samples.

http://gmod.org/wiki/Flash_GViewer

Flash GViewer is a customizable Flash movie that can be easily inserted into a web page to display each chromosome in a genome along with the locations of individual features on the chromosomes. It is intended to provide an overview of the genomic locations of a specific set of features - eg. genes and QTLs associated with a specific phenotype, etc. rather than as a way to view all features on the genome. The features can hyperlink out to a detail page to enable to GViewer to be used as a navigation tool. In addition the bands on the chromosomes can link to defineable URL and new region selection sliders can be used to select a specific chromosome region and then link out to a genome browser for higher resolution information. Genome maps for Rat, Mouse, Human and C. elegans are provided but other genome maps can be easily created. Annotation data can be provided as static text files or produced as XML via server scripts. This tool is not GO-specific, but was built for the purpose of viewing GO annotation data. Platform: Online tool
