rNA 1.0 / mrNA 1.0 / grNA 0.9 – randomized Numerical Aligner

rNA 1.0 / mrNA 1.0 / grNA 0.9

:: DESCRIPTION

rNA (randomized Numerical Aligner) is a software able to align the huge amount of data produced by Next Generation Sequencers. The main feature of rNA is the fact that it achieves an accuracy greater than the majority of other tools in a feasible amount of time. rNA works with single as well as paired ends reads and it allows indels and delta-search for better accuracy.

mrNA is the MPI version of the original rNA program.

grNA is a graphical front-end for rNA

X2K 1.6.1207 – mRNA Profiling Linked to Multiple Upstream Regulatory Layers

X2K 1.6.1207

:: DESCRIPTION

X2K (Expression2Kinases)  is a method to identify upstream regulators likely responsible for observed patterns in genome-wide gene expression. By integrating ChIP-seq/chip and position-weight-matrices (PWMs) data, protein-protein interactions, and kinase-substrate phosphorylation reactions, X2K can better identify regulatory mechanisms upstream of genome-wide differences in gene expression. X2K first infers the most likely transcription factors that regulate the differences in gene expression, then use protein-protein interactions to connect the identified transcription factors using additional proteins for building transcriptional regulatory subnetworks centered on these factors, and finally use kinase-substrate protein phosphorylation reactions, to identify and rank candidate protein-kinases that most likely regulate the formation of the identified transcriptional complexes.

mRIN 1.2.0 – direct Assessment of mRNA integrity from RNA-Seq data

mRIN 1.2.0

:: DESCRIPTION

mRIN (mRNA integrity number) is a computational method to assess a quantitative measure of mRNA integrityta. This is done by quantitatively modeling of the 3′ bias of read coverage profiles along each mRNA transcript. A per-sample summary mRIN is then derived as an indicator of mRNA degradation. This method has been used for systematic analysis of large scale RNA-Seq data of postmortem tissues, in which RNA degradation during tissue collection is particularly an issue.

SNPfold 1.01 – Identify RiboSNitches by leveraging GWAS data and an Analysis of the mRNA Structural Ensemble

SNPfold 1.01

:: DESCRIPTION

SNPfold evaluates the effects of SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) on the ensemble structure of an RNA. It takes as input an RNA sequence and one or more SNPs, and then evaluates the structural consequences of the mutation by computing a WT/SNP correlation coefficient. The smaller the correlation the larger the structural effects of the SNP.
