BEGFE 1.1 – Bayesian Estimation of Gene Family Evolution

BEGFE 1.1

:: DESCRIPTION

BEGFE implements a Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm to estimate the posterior probability distribution of the birth and death rate parameters and the numbers of gene copies at the internodes of the phylogenetic tree. In addition, BEGFE can simulate gene family data under the birth and death model.

FRST 1.2 – Protein Model Quality Estimation Method

FRST 1.2

:: DESCRIPTION

FRST serves to validate the energy of a protein structure. The server computes both an overall and a per-residue energy profile of a protein structure. The energy profile can be visualized in different ways, including a per-residue plot and a colored structure representation, accessible as a series of dynamic web pages.

SLR 1.4.3 – Sitewise Likehood Ratio Estimation of Selection

SLR 1.4.3

:: DESCRIPTION

SLR (Sitewise Likehood Ratio) is a program to detect sites in coding DNA that are unusually conserved and/or unusually variable (that is, evolving under purify or positive selection) by analysing the pattern of changes for an alignment of sequences on an evolutionary tree. The strength of selection at each site is determined by comparing the rate of nonsynonymous (amino acid changing) substitutions to that of synonymous (silent) substituions, the latter assumed to be invisible to selection and so evolving in a strictly neutral fashion.

MetaPIGA v3.1 – Large Phylogeny Estimation

MetaPIGA v3.1

:: DESCRIPTION

MetaPIGA is a robust implementation of several stochastic heuristics for large phylogeny inference (under maximum likelihood), including a random-restart hill climbing, a simulated annealing algorithm, a classical genetic algorithm, and the metapopulation genetic algorithm (metaGA) together with complex substitution models, discrete Gamma rate heterogeneity, and the possibility to partition data.
