SANS is a program for searching protein sequence databases. It is as sensitive as BLAST when sequence identity is 50-100 %. SANS is faster than BLAST in batch mode. For example, a bacterial genome can be compared to Uniprot in one hour compared to 100 hours by BLAST.
SANSparallel takes a protein sequence as input and returns a set of similar sequences from Uniprot databases.
CUDASW++ (compute unified device architecture) is a bioinformatics software for Smith-Waterman protein database searches that takes advantage of the massively parallel CUDA architecture of NVIDIA Tesla GPUs to perform sequence searches 10x-50x faster than NCBI BLAST.
PLAN (Personal BLAST Navigator) is a versatile web platform that helps users to carry out various personalized pre- and post-BLAST tasks, including: (1) query and target sequence database management, (2) automated high-throughput BLAST searching, (3) indexing and searching of results, (4) filtering results online, (5) managing results of personal interest in favorite categories, (6) automated sequence annotation (such as NCBI NR and ontology-based annotation). PLAN integrates, by default, the Decypher hardware-based BLAST solution provided by Active Motif Inc. with a greatly improved efficiency over conventional BLAST software. BLAST results are visualized by spreadsheets and graphs and are full-text searchable. BLAST results and sequence annotations can be exported, in part or in full, in various formats including Microsoft Excel and FASTA. Sequences and BLAST results are organized in projects, the data publication levels of which are controlled by the registered project owners. In addition, all analytical functions are provided to public users without registration.
3D-BLAST is a very fast and accurate method for discovering the homologous proteins and evolutionary classifications of a newly determined protein structure.
YEASTRACT is a curated repository of more than 206000 regulatory associations between transcription factors (TF) and target genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, based on more than 1300 bibliographic references.
YEASTRACT-DISCOVERER is a set of tools that can be used to identify complex motifs found to be over-represented in the promoter regions of co-regulated genes.
PANOW (Poisson Approximation for the Number of Occurrences of Words)is a software dedicated to the search of rare words in biological sequences (over- or under-represented words in DNA or protein sequences).
