Open Source Java Molecular Science Software

A set of tools (in Java) for working with next generation sequencing data in the SAM/BAM format. Note that development has moved to GitHub at https://github.com/broadinstitute/picard and support is available on the GATK forum at http://gatkforums.broadinstitute.org/categories/ask-the-team

The BioNLP UIMA Component Repository provides UIMA wrappers for novel and well-known 3rd-party NLP tools used in biomedical text prosessing, such as tokenizers, parsers, named entity taggers, and tools for evaluation.

Workbench for visualizing biological networks (regulatory, interaction, and metabolic). Can be used as a front-end for BNDB datawarehouses, but also as stand-alone tool.

FORce based Cluster Editing (FORCE) is a Java software heuristically solving the graph cluster editing problem on weighted edges using BLAST E-values. It further provides a training mode for heuristic parameter estimation.

GESPA (GEnomic Single nucleotide Polymorphism Analyzer) is a bioinformatics tool for classifying Nonsynonymous Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (nsSNPs). GESPA predicts if a nsSNP is pathogenic using reports from literature and various algorithms to assess conservation in orthologous and paralogous protein alignments. Using reports from literature, GESPA is also able to predict the phenotype of a nsSNP with high accuracy. The software can be used clinically to determine if observed nsSNPs are associated with disease. A host of annotations are provided: orthologous and paralogous multiple sequence alignments, UCSC annotations, reports detailing conservation of a nsSNP in alignments, and links to external nsSNP and gene information such as relevant publications. GESPA is connected to a constantly updating SQL server allowing for fast data retrieval. NOTE: REQUIRES Java 1.7.0+. Port 1433 cannot be blocked by firewall, network, or antivirus program.
