CNVer 0.8.1 – method for Detecting Copy Number Variation

CNVer 0.8.1

:: DESCRIPTION

CNVer is a method for CNV detection that supplements the depth-of-coverage with paired-end mapping information, where matepairs mapping discordantly to the reference serve to indicate the presence of variation. CNVer combines this information within a unified computational framework called the donor graph, allowing it to better mitigate the sequencing biases that cause uneven local coverage.

MSARi – Detecting Conservation of RNA Secondary Structure

MSARi

:: DESCRIPTION

The MSARi (Multiple Sequence Alignments for Statistical Detection of RNA Secondary Structure) program indentifies conserved RNA secondary structure in non-coding RNA genes and mRNAs by searching multiple sequence alignments of a large set of candidate catalogs for correlated arrangements of reverse-complementary regions

Digital Karyotyping 1.0.1 – Detecting DNA Copy Amplifications

Digital Karyotyping 1.0.1

:: DESCRIPTION

Digital Karyotyping (DK) is a method that provides quantitative analysis of DNA copy number at high resolution. DK uses cleaving enzymes to obtain unique tags (short but representative DNA sequences) at approximately 4 kb intervals along the entire genome.

RHH 0.1 – Visualizing Chromosome Mosaicism and Detecting Ethnic Outliers

RHH 0.1

:: DESCRIPTION

RHH (RHHcounter) is a software for visualizing chromosomal mosaicism in admixed individuals descended from two genetically distinct groups. The software also detects “outliers” whose ancestry is different or admixed compared to most other subjects in a dataset.
