myProMS 3.9.3 – Management, Validation and Interpretation of MS-based Proteomic data

myProMS 3.9.3

:: DESCRIPTION

myProMS is a comprehensive bioinformatics environment (database and web server) for management of Mass Spectrometry (MS) protein identification data generated by database-search engines such as Mascot or Sequest. Multiple functionalities are available to mine, validate and interpret the data from both MS and biological point of views. In particular, biological interpretation of the results is facilitated through the use of sophisticated data comparison modules, annotation enrichments and links to external resources. myProMS was designed to optimize data access and sharing during collaboration between users with complementary expertises; typically MS experts and biologists.

VTAM 0.1.21 – Validation and Taxonomic Assignation of Metabarcoding Data

VTAM 0.1.21

:: DESCRIPTION

VTAM is a metabarcoding pipeline. The analyses start from high throughput sequencing (HTS) data of amplicons of one or several metabarcoding markers and produce an Amplicon Sequence Variant (ASV or variant) table of validated variants assigned to taxonomic groups.

Peptizer 1.8.4 – Automating manual Validation of MS/MS Search results

Peptizer 1.8.4

:: DESCRIPTION

The Peptizer platform was created to automate the manual validation process by an expert system. The user can create a rule set via by enabling a set of Agent objects that will each inspect an assumption based on expert knowledge. Subsequent aggregation of multiple Agent inspection the enables separation of peptide identifications by these rules.

WOOF – Word-oriented Objective Function for Validation of Sequence Alignments

WOOF

:: DESCRIPTION

WOOF (Word-oriented objective function) is a method designed to rigourously apply the principle of visual alignment validation. WOOF does not actually make changes to a multiple sequence alignment, but is intead intended to choose the best alignment of a set of proteins from a set of such alignments that have been generated using different algorithms and parameter settings. The winning alignment is the one that best aligns a set of conserved patterns extracted using a pattern-finding approach such as TEIRESIAS. Patterns are weighted based on their statistical significance and position relative to other patterns.

PSVS 1.5 – Protein Structure Validation Software Suite

PSVS 1.5

:: DESCRIPTION

PSVS systematically evaluates the quality of protein structures. PSVS integrates analyses from several widely-used structure quality evaluation tools, including RPF , PROCHECK, MolProbity , Verify3D  Prosa II , the PDB validation software, and various structure-validation tools.PSVS provides standard constraint analyses, statistics on the PDB validation goodness-of-fit between structures and experimental data, and knowledge-based structure quality scores in standardized format suitable for database integration. Global quality measures are reported as Z scores, based on calibration with a set of high-resolution X-ray crystal structures.
