BioXTAS RAW is a program for analysis of Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) data. The software enables: creation of 1D scattering profiles from 2D detector images, standard data operations such as averaging and subtraction, analysis of radius of gyration (Rg) and molecular weight, and advanced analysis using GNOM and DAMMIF as well as electron density reconstructions using DENSS. It also allows easy processing of inline SEC-SAXS data and data deconvolution using the evolving factor analysis (EFA) or the regularized alternating least squares (REGALS) methods.

Model-based Analysis of Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 Knockout (MAGeCK) is a computational tool to identify important genes from the recent genome-scale CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screens technology. For instructions and documentations, please refer to the wiki page. MAGeCK is developed by Wei Li and Han Xu from Dr. Xiaole Shirley Liu's lab at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Harvard School of Public Health, and is maintained by Wei Li lab at Children's National Medical Center. We thank the support from Claudia Adams Barr Program in Innovative Basic Cancer Research and NIH/NHGRI to develop MAGeCK.

TinkerCell is a software for synthetic biology. The visual interface allows users to design networks using various biological "parts". Models can include modules and multiple cells. Users can program new functions using C or Python. www.tinkercell.

This is a sophisticated & integrated simulation and analysis environment for dynamical systems models of physical systems (ODEs, DAEs, maps, and hybrid systems). It supports symbolic math, optimization, continuation, data analysis, biological apps...

The Sashimi project hosts the Trans-Proteomic Pipeline (TPP), a mature suite of tools for mass-spec (MS, MS/MS) based proteomics: statistical validation, quantitation, visualization, and converters from raw MS data to the open mzML/mzXML formats.

The software package 'relax' is designed for the study of molecular dynamics through the analysis of experimental NMR data. Organic molecules, proteins, RNA, DNA, sugars, and other biomolecules are all supported. It supports exponential curve fitting for the calculation of the R1 and R2 relaxation rates, calculation of the NOE, reduced spectral density mapping, the Lipari and Szabo model-free analysis, study of domain motions via the N-state model and frame order dynamics theories using anisotropic NMR parameters such as RDCs and PCSs, the investigation of stereochemistry in dynamic ensembles, and the analysis of relaxation dispersion data.

CBFLIB is a library of ANSI-C functions providing a simple mechanism for accessing Crystallographic Binary Files (CBF files) and Image-supporting CIF (imgCIF) files. The CBFLIB API is loosely based on the CIFPARSE API for mmCIF files.

The Systems Biology Workbench(SBW) is a framework for application intercommunications. It uses a broker-based, distributed, message-passing architecture, supports many languages including Java, C++, Perl & Python, and runs under Linux,OSX & Win32. It comes with a large number of modules, encompassing the whole modeling cycle: creating computational models, simulating and analyzing them, visualizing the information, in order to improve the models. All using community standards, such as SED-ML, SBML and MIRIAM.

RADAR stands for Rapid Automatic Detection and Alignment of Repeats in protein sequences. RADAR identifies gapped approximate repeats and complex repeat architectures involving many different types of repeats. Radar has moved to github (https://github.com/AndreasHeger/radar)

The Collaborative Computational Project for NMR (CCPN) provides tools and knowledge to maximise the impact of the biological NMR studies. The CCPN software facilitates data analysis and software integration. The project actively promotes the exchange of knowledge and provides training and best practices for the NMR community. CCPN also has a leading role in the development of a NMR data-sharing standard and coordination of NMR instrumentation proposals for RCUK and BIS. The 28 partners of CCPN jointly cover all aspects of biomolecular NMR and together they promote excellence in science in their respective fields.

During the past few years, whole exome sequencing has imposed itself for genetic research, largely due to its use for detection of causative mutations responsible for Mendelian disorders. As a consequence of their power and of the rapidly decreasing cost of these technologies, massive amount of exome sequencing data are generated and becoming available to a broadening community of scientists. However, these data remain difficult to analyze and interpret by the general scientific community, due to the limited bioinformatics resources that are currently freely available for their analysis and the partial information that they provide. Here, we present an interactive and free analysis package, ExAM, dedicated to whole exome sequencing data analysis. It is accessible to non-computer scientists and provides a complete set of information, as well as decision support to prioritize candidate disease causing variants.
