MicrobeGPS is a bioinformatics tool for the analysis of metagenomic sequencing data. The goal is to profile the composition of metagenomic communities as accurately as possible and present the results to the user in a convenient manner. One main focus is reliability: the tool calculates quality metrics for the estimated candidates and allows the user to identify false candidates easily.

XMIPP is an image processing suite for 3D-reconstruction of biological specimens from transmission electron microscopy data. NOTE that stable releases (including binaries) are longer stored at Sourceforge, but are available at http://xmipp.cnb.csic.es

Mix is a tool that combines two or more draft assemblies, without relying on a reference genome and has the goal to reduce contig fragmentation and thus speed-up genome finishing. The proposed algorithm builds an extension graph where vertices represent extremities of contigs and edges represent existing alignments between these extremities. These alignment edges are used for contig extension. The resulting output assembly corresponds to a path in the extension graph that maximizes the cumulative contig length.

The purpose of this project is to make available a variety of tools written in Python.

Bisulfite sequencing (BSseq) processing is among the most cumbersome next generation sequencing (NGS) applications. Though some BSseq processing tools are available, they are scattered, require puzzling parameters and are running-time and memory-usage demanding. We have developed P3BSseq, a parallel processing pipeline for fast, accurate and automatic analysis of BSseq reads that trims, aligns, annotates, records the intermediate results, performs bisulfite conversion quality assessment, generates BED methylome and report files following the NIH standards. P3BSseq outperforms the known BSseq mappers regarding running time, computer hardware requirements. We optimized the P3BSseq parameters for both directional and non-directional libraries, and for both single-end and paired-end reads of Whole Genome and Reduced Representation BSseq. P3BSseq is a user-friendly streamlined solution for BSseq upstream analysis, requiring only basic computer and NGS knowledge.

PARs is a bioinformatics tool for the analysis of cis-regulatory DNA sequences. Composed of two parts: a suite of sequence analysis algorithms for predicting cis-binding sites in DNA sequences and a GUI for visualisation and exploration of the results.

Physiologically based toxicokinetic (PBTK) modeling offers great promise in environmental risk assessment, potentially speeding up dose-response studies while minimizing animal testing. Some limitations exist in the PBTK field, such as difficulty of model development and a lack of application specific software tools to help modelers. Some parameters used in PBTK models, such as tissue weights, are easily measure. Other parameters can be determined through in-vitro experiments or through extrapolation using published equations. When it is impractical to use these methods to estimate a parameter, techniques can be used to optimize parameters so that model results best fit validation data. This tool was designed to optimize a user-specified list of parameters to a user-specified PBTK model. The user also controls validation data and optimization algorithms. In addition to optimized parameters, the tool outputs statistical information about the fit of the optimized model.
