CAT / Xat 0.8.6 – Cross-species Alignment Tool

CAT / Xat 0.8.6

:: DESCRIPTION

 CAT (Xat) is designed to be a cross-species (both intra-species and inter-species), nucleotide level, cDNA-to-genome alignment software. It uses improved heuristics to effectively balance specificity, sensitivity and speed, and is optimized for genome-wide mapping.

Heinz 2.0 / xHeinz 1.2 – Single / Cross-species Module Discovery

Heinz 2.0 /xHeinz 1.2

:: DESCRIPTION

Heinz is a tool for single-species active module discovery.

xHeinz is a software solver that searches for active subnetwork modules that are conserved between two species. It uses a branch-and-cut algorithm that finds provably optimal or near-optimal solutions.
