JOY 5.0 – Protein Sequence-Structure Representation and Analysis

JOY 5.0

:: DESCRIPTION

JOY is a program to annotate protein sequence alignments with three-dimensional (3D) structural features. It was developed to display 3D structural information in a sequence alignment and help understand the conservation of amino acids in their specific local environments. For instance, it has been recognised that a sidechain hydrogen-bonded to a main-chain amide plays an important role in stabilizing the 3D structure and is generally well conserved during evolution. Such a residue is shown in a bold-face letter in the formatted alignments. Another example is the importance of solvent inaccessible residues which are shown in UPPER-CASE letters.

GrammR 1.1.0 – Graphical Representation and Modeling of Metagenomic reads

GrammR 1.1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

GrammR represents metagenomic samples on the Euclidean space to examine similarity amongst samples by studying clusters in the model. Given the matrix of metagenomic counts for samples, this package (1) quantifies dissimilarity between samples using Kendall’s tau-distance, (2) constructs multidimensional models of different dimension, and (3) plots the models for visualization and comparison.
