Ports Search

A set of tools written in Perl and C++ for working with VCF files, such as those generated by the 1000 Genomes Project.

"Wise2 is package that is focused on comparing DNA sequences at the level of its conceptual translation, regardless of sequencing error and introns. This really is a rewrite of the old wisetools package, which I wrote about 3 years ago. It can compare a single protein or a profile HMM to a genomic DNA sequence, and predict a gene structure. This is algorithm, called genewise, is one of the algorithms available in Wise2. There are other algorithms focused on EST data rather than genomic data, as well as some other algorithm curios." - from the web site (Ewan Birney)

Xmolwt (Motif version)/Gmolwt (GTK+ version) This program calculates the formula weight and percent of each element for a given chemical formula. This port is builds a GTK+ version of the program. If you want to use/build a Motif version, then use Makefile.motif which is included in the ports skeleton.

Folding@home is a distributed computing project -- people from throughout the world download and run software to band together to make one of the largest supercomputers in the world. Every computer takes the project closer to our goals. Folding@home uses novel computational methods coupled to distributed computing, to simulate problems millions of times more challenging than previously achieved. Protein folding is linked to disease, such as Alzheimer's, ALS, Huntington's, Parkinson's disease, and many Cancers. Moreover, when proteins do not fold correctly (i.e. "misfold"), there can be serious consequences, including many well known diseases, such as Alzheimer's, Mad Cow (BSE), CJD, ALS, Huntington's, Parkinson's disease, and many cancers and cancer-related syndromes.
