Assemble2 2.3 – Construct & Study RNA Architectures

Assemble2 2.3

:: DESCRIPTION

Assemble proposes an intuitive graphical interface to study and construct complex three-dimensional RNA structures. When an RNA tertiary structure is opened with Assemble, it is automatically annotated with a secondary structure definition. This secondary structure can be used as a map to analyze the original tertiary structure. Using a secondary structure definition, Assemble can also produce a first draft of a 3D Model. Then the construction process can be pursued “by hand” using several widgets.

RFsupertrees 2.0 – Program for Constructing Accurate Supertrees

RFsupertrees 2.0

:: DESCRIPTION

RFsupertrees (Robinson-Foulds Supertrees) takes as input a collection of rooted trees and heuristically searches for a binary supertree that minimizes the total (rooted) Robinson-Foulds distance between the supertree and the input trees. The intuition behind seeking a binary supertree, even though the input trees may be non-binary (unresolved), is that, under this setting, minimizing the RF distance is equivalent to maximizing the number of shared clades (or clusters) between the input trees and the supertree. Thus, an RF supertree is a supertree that is consistent with the largest number of clusters from the input trees. The program can quickly compute accurate supertrees for even large datasets containing thousands of input trees with many hundreds of taxa.

Cri-Map 2.4 – Construct Multilocus Linkage Map

Cri-Map 2.4

:: DESCRIPTION

CRI-MAP‘s purpose is to allow rapid, largely automated construction of multilocus linkage maps (and facilitate the attendant tasks of assessing support relative to alternative locus orders, generating LOD tables, and detecting data errors). Although originally designed to handle codominant loci (e.g. RFLPs) scored on pedigrees “without missing individuals”, such as CEPH or nuclear families, it can now (with some caveats described below) be used on general pedigrees, and some disease loci.

REMO 2.0 – Construct Full-atom Protein Models from C-alpha Traces

REMO 2.0

 

:: DESCRIPTION

REMO is a multifunctional program for constructing full-atom protein models from C-alpha traces by optimizing the backbone hydrogen-bonding networks. It gives options to choose models which are close to a given template or have more hydrogen-bonds. It has also options to build hydrogen atoms and side chain heavy atoms. The bond length and bond angle parameters are taken from CHARMM22.
