PiGX scRNAseq is an analysis pipeline for preprocessing and quality control for single cell RNA sequencing experiments. The inputs are read files from the sequencing experiment, and a configuration file which describes the experiment. It produces processed files for downstream analysis and interactive quality reports. The pipeline is designed to work with UMI based methods.

RSeQC provides a number of modules that can comprehensively evaluate high throughput sequence data, especially RNA-seq data. Some basic modules inspect sequence quality, nucleotide composition bias, PCR bias and GC bias, while RNA-seq specific modules evaluate sequencing saturation, mapped reads distribution, coverage uniformity, strand specificity, etc.

Millefy is a tool for visualizing read coverage of scRNA-seq(single-cell RNA sequencing) datasets in genomic contexts. By dynamically and automatically reorder single cells based on locus-specific pseudo time, Millefy highlights cell-to-cell heterogeneity in read coverage of scRNA-seq data.

This package is used for demultiplexing single-cell sequencing experiments of pooled cells. These cells are labeled with barcode oligonucleotides. The package implements methods to fit regression mixture models for a probabilistic classification of cells, including multiplet detection. Demultiplexing error rates can be estimated, and methods for quality control are provided.

PyEGA3 is a tool for viewing and downloading files from authorized EGA datasets. It uses the EGA data API and has several key features:

• Files are transferred over secure https connections and received unencrypted, so no need for decryption after download.

• Downloads resume from where they left off in the event that the connection is interrupted.

• Supports file segmenting and parallelized download of segments, improving overall performance.

• After download completes, file integrity is verified using checksums.

• Implements the GA4GH-compliant htsget protocol for download of genomic ranges for data files with accompanying index files.

PhyML is a software package that uses modern statistical approaches to analyse alignments of nucleotide or amino acid sequences in a phylogenetic framework. The main tool in this package builds phylogenies under the maximum likelihood criterion. It implements a large number of substitution models coupled with efficient options to search the space of phylogenetic tree topologies. codePhyREX fits the spatial-Lambda-Fleming-Viot model to geo-referenced genetic data. This model is similar to the structured coalescent but assumes that individuals are distributed along a spatial continuum rather than discrete demes. PhyREX can be used to estimate population densities and rates of dispersal. Its output can be processed by treeannotator (from the BEAST package) as well as SPREAD.

Centrifuge is a microbial classification engine that enables rapid, accurate and sensitive labeling of reads and quantification of species on desktop computers. The system uses an indexing scheme based on the Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT) and the Ferragina-Manzini (FM) index, optimized specifically for the metagenomic classification problem. Centrifuge requires a relatively small index (4.7 GB for all complete bacterial and viral genomes plus the human genome) and classifies sequences at very high speed, allowing it to process the millions of reads from a typical high-throughput DNA sequencing run within a few minutes.

ravanan is a CWL implementation that is powered by GNU Guix and provides strong reproducibility guarantees. ravanan provides strong caching of intermediate results so the same step of a workflow is never run twice. ravanan captures logs from every step of the workflow for easy tracing back in case of job failures. ravanan currently runs on single machines and on slurm via its API.

Cutadapt finds and removes adapter sequences, primers, poly-A tails and other types of unwanted sequence from high-throughput sequencing reads.

The Shaman package implements functions for resampling Hi-C matrices in order to generate expected contact distributions given constraints on marginal coverage and contact-distance probability distributions. The package also provides support for visualizing normalized matrices and statistical analysis of contact distributions around selected landmarks.

PiGx SARS-CoV-2 is a pipeline for analysing data from sequenced wastewater samples and identifying given variants-of-concern of SARS-CoV-2. The pipeline can be used for continuous sampling. The output report will provide an intuitive visual overview about the development of variant abundance over time and location.

Maxent is a stand-alone Java application for modelling species geographic distributions.

Mantis is a space-efficient data structure that can be used to index thousands of raw-read genomics experiments and facilitate large-scale sequence searches on those experiments. Mantis uses counting quotient filters instead of Bloom filters, enabling rapid index builds and queries, small indexes, and exact results, i.e., no false positives or negatives. Furthermore, Mantis is also a colored de Bruijn graph representation, so it supports fast graph traversal and other topological analyses in addition to large-scale sequence-level searches.

The BIOM file format is designed to be a general-use format for representing counts of observations e.g. operational taxonomic units, KEGG orthology groups or lipid types, in one or more biological samples e.g. microbiome samples, genomes, metagenomes.

Infernal ("INFERence of RNA ALignment") is a tool for searching DNA sequence databases for RNA structure and sequence similarities. It is an implementation of a special case of profile stochastic context-free grammars called covariance models (CMs). A CM is like a sequence profile, but it scores a combination of sequence consensus and RNA secondary structure consensus, so in many cases, it is more capable of identifying RNA homologs that conserve their secondary structure more than their primary sequence.

The goal of anpan is to consolidate statistical methods for strain analysis. This includes automated filtering of metagenomic functional profiles, testing genetic elements for association with outcomes, phylogenetic association testing, and pathway-level random effects models.

LAMMPS is a classical molecular dynamics simulator designed to run efficiently on parallel computers. LAMMPS has potentials for solid-state materials (metals, semiconductors), soft matter (biomolecules, polymers), and coarse-grained or mesoscopic systems. It can be used to model atoms or, more generically, as a parallel particle simulator at the atomic, meso, or continuum scale.

Ribotaper is a method for defining translated open reading frames (ORFs) using ribosome profiling (ribo-seq) data. This package provides the Ribotaper pipeline.

BioJava is a project dedicated to providing a Java framework for processing biological data. It provides analytical and statistical routines, parsers for common file formats, reference implementations of popular algorithms, and allows the manipulation of sequences and 3D structures. The goal of the biojava project is to facilitate rapid application development for bioinformatics.

This package provides the core libraries.

Trim Galore! is a wrapper script to automate quality and adapter trimming as well as quality control, with some added functionality to remove biased methylation positions for RRBS sequence files.

HTSlib is a C library for reading/writing high-throughput sequencing data. It also provides the bgzip, htsfile, and tabix utilities.

Fastahack is a small application for indexing and extracting sequences and subsequences from FASTA files. The included library provides a FASTA reader and indexer that can be embedded into applications which would benefit from directly reading subsequences from FASTA files. The library automatically handles index file generation and use.

Straw is library which allows rapid streaming of contact data from .hic files. This package provides Python bindings.
