The SourceForge OpenRasMol project is an adjunct to the RasMol and OpenrasMol project at http://rasmol.org. It is hoped that the SourceForge OpenRasMol project will provide a convenient focal point for active collaborative contributions.

MUMmer is a modular system for the rapid whole genome alignment of finished or draft sequence. This package provides an efficient suffix tree library, seed-and-extend alignment, SNP detection, repeat detection, and visualization tools.

Bowtie 2 is a fast, memory-efficient genomic read aligner used to map sequencing reads against long reference sequences such as mammalian genomes. It is especially effective for reads ranging from around 50 bases to hundreds or thousands of characters, and it supports modern sequencing workflows that require gapped, local, and paired-end alignment. The tool builds compact FM-index-based reference indexes, keeping memory usage low even for large genomes like the human genome. Bowtie 2 outputs alignments in SAM format and includes companion utilities for building and inspecting indexes. It is widely used in bioinformatics pipelines for RNA-seq, DNA-seq, metagenomics, variant analysis, and other sequencing-based research tasks. Overall, Bowtie 2 remains a foundational command-line tool for high-throughput sequence alignment and reproducible computational biology workflows.

This software solves the Phylogeny problem using Median Networks. Exact and heuristic methods available. Input: an alignment and a reversible stepmatrix, output: (sub)optimal trees and their combinations. Steiner problem solver included.

A set of tools for working with VCF files, such as those generated by the 1000 Genomes Project. This project is migrating to github: https://vcftools.github.io/

A minimalist approach to share text documents and data annotations. Allows a large number of different annotations to be represented. Project files contain: - simple code to hold/read/write data and perform sample processing. - BioC-formatted corpora - BioC tools that work with BioC corpora BioC goals - simplicity - interoperability - broad use - reuse There should be little investment required to learn to use a format or a software module to process that format. We are interested in reuse, and we focus on common NLP tasks that are broadly useful for textmining.

ProteoWizard development moved to GitHub in 2018. The ProteoWizard Library is a set of software libraries and tools for rapid development of proteomics data analysis software. The libraries are cross-platform and built from the ground up using modern C++ techniques.

September 2021: the code repository has migrate to https://github.com/UWPR/Comet Comet is an open source tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) sequence database search engine. It identifies peptides by searching MS/MS spectra against sequences present in protein sequence databases. Comet currently exists as a simple Windows or Linux command line binary that only does MS/MS database search. Supported input formats are mzXML, mzML, ms2, and Thermo RAW files. Supported output formats are tab-delimited text, Percolator pin, SQT, and pepXML Documentation and project website: http://comet-ms.sourceforge.net
