ADOMA stands for: Alternative Display Of Multiple Alignment. ADOMA can create four different displays of a multiple sequence alignment: a ClustalW alignment in HTML format, a simplified ClustalW alignment in HTML and/or txt format and a colored ClustalW alignment in HTML format. For examples of these outputfiles check the screenshots. ADOMA uses ClustalW to create the multiple alignment from DNA or protein sequences and displays them slightly different than the normal output of ClustalW. ADOMA is a commandline program that can easily be used in pipelines. For more information check the README.md in the Files section. How to cite ADOMA: Zaal, D. and Nota, B.

ProtPOS is a self-contained, lightweight, and easy-to-use software package for predicting the preferred orientation of protein on a given surface upon initial adsorption. It searches quickly for the low energy protein poses in all translational and rotational degrees of freedom of the protein with respect to the surface using particle swarm optimization. Each successful run returns the lowest energy orientation of the protein on the surface in PDB format, which is readily used for MD simulations. ProtPOS is implemented in Python, making use of the PyMOL library for generating protein conformations and calling GROMACS externally to calculate protein-surface interaction energies. https://cbbio.online/software/protpos/

BARNACLE is a Python library for RNA 3D structure prediction. It can be used for probabilistic sampling of RNA structures that are compatible with a given nucleotide sequence and that are RNA like on a local length scale.

DeDAY (Demography Data Analyses) is a tool of analyzing demography data. It supports Gompertz, Weibull and Logistic distributions. DeDay also supports mixed mortality models based on these distribution such as the Gompertz-Makeham distribution. Distributions such as Gompertz describes only age-dependent mortality, which increases over time. Mixed mortality models, such as in Gompertz-Makeham distribution, consider a more general case where mortality is consist of both age-dependent and in-dependent mortality. Mixed models partition mortality into exogenous and endogenous components, so that the intrinsic survivorship can be estimated without the interference from extrinsic noise. DeDAY supports both interval-censored data and exact event-time data. Using MLE (Maximum Likelihood Estimate), DeDAY fits statistic model to the data. DeDAY also calculates the variances and the multi-dimensional confidence limits of model parameters. DeDAY is free for academic users.

GemSIM is a software package for generating realistic simulated next-generation sequencing reads with quality score values. Both Illumina and Roche/454 reads (single or paired end) can be simulated using appropriate empirical error models.

HyLiTE (Hybrid Lineage Transcriptome Explorer) analyzes high-throughput transcriptome data from allopolyploid species. Allopolyploidy describes the formation of a new hybrid organism from the union of two or more different parents. Allopolyploid species carry multiple copies of each gene (homeologs), which often exhibit unusual expression patterns. Homeolog expression levels can technically be determined from next generation sequencing data (RNA-seq), but in practice, assigning reads to one homeolog over another is extremely challenging, particularly on a whole-genome scale. HyLiTE automates this process, and allows gene expression patterns to be explored even in very complex allopolyploid species.

Magnolya enables copy number variation (CNV) detections without using a reference genome. Magnolya directly compares two next-generation sequencing datasets.

We developed a novel clustering-free method, microarray-associated motif analyzer (MAMA), to predict novel cis-acting elements based on weighted sequence similarities and gene expression profiles in microarray analyses. Simulation of gene expression was performed using a support vector machine and based on the presence of predicted motifs and motif pairs. The accuracy of simulated gene expression was used to evaluate the quality of prediction and to optimize the parameters used in this method. After optimization, MAMA accurately simulated more than 87% of gene expression. See Kakei Y, Ogo Y, Itai RN, et al.
