NCBI has an implementation of BLAST algorithm on their website at www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST, which is good if you want to query short DNA or protein sequence against various sequence databases. The problem arises when large sequences need to be BLAST'ed against a sequence database or against... Platforms: Matlab

This demo illustrates a simple approach to perform taxonomy annotation of BLAST hits. It requires three taxonomy files gi_taxid_prot.dmp, names.dmp and nodes.dmp, which can be downloaded from the NCBI taxonomy FTP site. Platforms: Matlab

dbSNPtool starts a GUI to return polymorphism data from dbSNPwww.ncbi.nih.gov/SNP Calling dbsnptool start the GUI, SNP % records are returned based on keyword. Each result is presented in a % listbox, clicking on the entry loads the sequence into the sequence %viewer. Information is presenting... Platforms: Matlab

The Bioinformatic Software Bench for Drupal allows for a rapid and secure deployment of bioinformatic software. The BLAST, InterProScan, SSAHA2 and annot8r software are provided by default and plugins for new software can be readily written. An innovative graphical user interface guides both... Platforms: PHP

ProtSeqFetch is software for generating artificial metagenomes. The program downloads protein sequences at the genera level directly from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) or extracts them from a local copy of the NCBI NR ("non-redundant") database. A non-redundant... Platforms: Mac

This script uses the gene name field(s) in a table downloaded from the UCSC Genome Browser to add gene names to an existing SVS marker map saved in the DSM file format. Note: Though the following instructions specify downloading a table containing genes based on the Mar. 2006 (NCBI36/hg18) Human... Platforms: Mac
