#Software
Submitted by jpmaree5@gmail.com -

"I-TASSER server is an on-line platform for protein structure and function predictions. It allows academic users to automatically generate high-quality predictions of 3D structure and biological function of protein molecules from their amino acid sequences. I-TASSER (as 'Zhang-Server') was ranked as the No 1 server for protein structure prediction in recent community-wide CASP7, CASP8, CASP9,…

PLINK v1.90
#MOOC
Submitted by b.mlotshwa@hotmail.co.uk -

The focus of PLINK is purely on analysis of genotype/phenotype data. using PLINK, researchers can read data in a variety of formats, recode and reorder files, merge two or more files, extract subsets (SNPs or individuals), flip strand of SNPs and compress data in a binary file format. PLINK also enables researchers to perform summary statistics for quality control, detect population…

EMBO Practical Course on Analysis of High-Throughput Sequencing Data
#MOOC
Submitted by b.mlotshwa@hotmail.co.uk -

Familiarity with the technology and biological use cases of high throughput sequencing is required, as is some experience with R/Bioconductor. The lectures give insight into how biological knowledge can be generated from RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq experiments and illustrate different ways of analysing such data. Practicals consist of computer exercises that will enable the participants to apply…
