CIPHER – Correlating Protein Interaction Network and Phenotype Network to predict Disease Genes

CIPHER

:: DESCRIPTION

CIPHER, which stands for Correlating interactome and phenome networks to predict disease genes, is a computational framework we proposed to prioritize human disease genes. It was one of the first studies to explore interactome-phenome wide gene-disease relationships, and generated the first comprehensive genetic landscape of human disease,connecting 5080 human disease phenotypes with 14433 human genes.

GeneStitch 1.2.1 – Network Matching Algorithm to Gene Assembly

GeneStitch 1.2.1

:: DESCRIPTION

GeneStitch is a tool to assemble genes using network matching algorithm. Given an already-assembled dataset, it is capable of assembling contigs together to form more complete genes with the help of a reference gene set. Currently the assembly software that GeneStitch support is SOAPdenovo.

PSN – Protein Pocket Similarity Networks

PSN

:: DESCRIPTION

the PSN (Pocket Similarity Networks) is a software to describe the similarity among these pockets with different thresholds, which are the measurements of the similarity. In order to explore the relationship between the pocket similarity and the GO terms similarity, we statistics the percentage of proteins with similar pockets corresponding to identical GO terms and semantic similarity of the GO functions. Then, the topology structure of the network is used to predict functions. The closest neighbors of pocket and the connected components of the networks would be used to predict a target protein’s functions (GO terms) by a scoring scheme. We test the performance of the method by cross-validated experiments on large scale proteins come from different families. We also predicted the GO functions of some un-annotated proteins.

IBRENA 1.0 – In silico Biochemical Reaction Network Analysis

IBRENA 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

IBRENA (Insilico Biochemical REaction Network Analysis) is a software to aid the analysis of complex biological reaction networks. In order to reduce computation time, in some cases, ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are solved using Visual FORTRAN (HP-Compaq V6.6, Palo Alto, CA) with integrated IMSL library (Visual Numerics Inc., Houston, TX). This reduces the computational time required for time-consuming sensitivity analysis.
