The JChemPaint Applet and Swing Application are Java programs for drawing 2D chemical structures like those found in most chemistry textbooks. It is based on the Chemistry Development Kit (cdk.sf.net). Downloads, tracker, and source code repository can be found on https://jchempaint.github.io

MELTING is a software to compute, for a nucleic acid duplex, the enthalpy and the entropy of the helix coil transition and then the melting temperature. Four types of hybridization are possible : DNA/DNA, RNA/RNA, RNA/DNA and mRNA/RNA.

mzMatch is a Java collection of small commandline tools specific for metabolomics MS data analysis. The tools are built on top of the PeakML core library, providing mass spectrometry specific functionality and access to the PeakML file format.

J-ICE stands for Jmol interface for crystallographic and electronic properties. Is an extension of the powerful, platform independent molecular visualizer Jmol, towards crystallographic and electronic properties. More info will be given soon.

PUPIL (Program for User Package Interface and Linking), is a software environment that allows developers to link quickly and efficiently together multiple pieces of software in a fully automated multi-scale simulation. More specifically, it supports QM/MM MD simulations where the user might choose among any of the different MD engines and QM engines, which are connected to PUPIL as external programs through a tiny specific interface. One of the main advantages here is that the user can use most of the functionalities that may have those external programs interfaced without the necessity to be reimplemented again on independent interfaces. In fact, this simulation interface concentrates all the common code involved in the coupling terms of the QM/MM approach.

This package contains code for use with Short Read DNA Sequencing technologies, and includes packages for ChIP-Seq, Whole Transcriptome Shotgun Sequencing, Whole Genome Shotgun Sequencing, SNP Detection, Transcript expression and file conversion.

Modern MATLAB-based modelling software for 13C metabolic flux analysis (MFA). Support available in Google group (https://groups.google.com/d/forum/13cmfa-openflux).

This is the protein similarity network - PSIN. Here, the nodes are human proteins and they are linked only if they share considerable sequence similarity. We found that this network is particularly useful to distinguish approved from problematic drug-targets. Here you also find the complete set of programs and datasets we used for this purpose. Free to help further test and develop this project. Your help and expertise are much appreciated ! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us in the forum or by email. Please see the original manuscript: Lopes, TJS, et al. (2015) - "Identifying problematic drugs based on the characteristics of their targets" - Frontiers in Pharmacology doi: 10.3389/fphar.2015.00186

This application is intended to help students with the basics of chemistry. It can solve basic gas laws equations, and find the molar mass of a compound or element. These tasks allow students to cut the repetition out of basic chemistry.

In the regulatory assessment of chemicals (e.g. under REACH), Quantitative Structure Activity Models (QSAR) are playing an increasingly important role in predicting properties for hazard and risk assessment. This implies both a need to be able to identify relevant QSARs and to use them to derive estimates and/or have access to their precalculated estimates. To help meet these needs, the JRC QSAR Model Database is established and freely accessible through http://qsardb.jrc.ec.europa.eu/qmrf The QSAR Model Reporting Format (QMRF) is a harmonised template for summarising and reporting key information on QSAR models, including the results of any validation studies. The information is structured according to the OECD validation principles. Download the QMRF Editor in order to describe your models in QMRF format and send the descriptions to JRC-COMPUTOX@ec.europa.eu to have them included in the database.

Octet is an object-oriented molecular representation framework written in Java.

Processing of smallRNA-Seq data to gather biologically relevant information requires application of multiple statistical and bioinformatics tools from different sources, each focusing on a specific step of the analysis pipeline. The analytical workflow can be challenging for the continuous interventions by the operator, a critical factor when large numbers of datasets need to be analyzed at once. To allow a flexible and comprehensive analysis of smallRNA-Seq data we designed a novel modular pipeline, called iMir, integrating multiple open source modules and resource in an automated workflow, devising different statistical approaches to analyze data rigorously. iMir comprises also a Graphical User Interface (GUI), so that the pipeline is particularly suited for biologist and early stage bioinformaticians and produces both graphics and text outputs.
