blacs (Basic Linear Algebra Communication Subprograms)
Version(s): 1 | Support: None
The BLACS (Basic Linear Algebra Communication Subprograms) project is an ongoing investigation whose purpose is to create a linear algebra oriented message passing interface that may be implemented efficiently and uniformly across a large range of distributed memory platforms.

Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms
Chemical Database
Version(s): 1 | Support: Onsite
Developed and implemented alpha test versions of chemical databases supporting high throughput screening and combinatorial chemistry. In the former case, bioactivity screening data is stored in a table indexed according to a large number of chemical compounds available at the University of Kansas High Throughput Screening Center. In the latter case, structures are stored by chemists developing and analyzing chemical libraries. In both cases the databases are searchable by chemical structure, compound ID and physicochemical properties. Functional demonstration accounts have been created for this report and can be accessed at the following URLs:

clustalw
Version(s): 1 | Support: Onsite
Performs multiple sequence alignments

  • Head node of bioinformatics cluster at ITTC. (fusion)
  • Head node of bioinformatics cluster at KUMC. (bioc-frontend)
dms
Version(s): 1 | Support: None
Dms calculates the molecular surface of a molecule. The molecular surface resembles the van der Waals surface of a molecule, except that crevices between atoms are smoothed over and interstices too small to accommodate the probe are eliminated. The surface includes cavities in the interior of the molecule, even if they are not accessible to a solvent molecule coming from the outside.
dock6
Version(s): 1 | Support: Corporate
DOCK 6 is written in C++ and is functionally separated into independent components, allowing a high degree of program flexibility. Accessory programs are written in Fortran 77. We provide source code for all programs.
emboss
Version(s): 2 | Support: Onsite
EMBOSS, The European Molecular Biology Open Source Software Suite, is a package of high-quality FREE Open Source software for sequence analysis.

genscan
Version(s): 1 | Support: Onsite
GENSCAN is a general-purpose gene identification program which analyzes genomic DNA sequences from a variety of organisms including human, other vertebrates, invertebrates and plants. For each sequence, the program determines the most likely "parse" (gene structure) under a probabilistic model of the gene structural and compositional properties of the genomic DNA for the given organism.

hmmer
Version(s): 1 | Support: Onsite
HMMER is an implementation of profile HMM methods for sensitive database searches using multiple sequence alignments as queries. Basically, you give HMMER a multiple sequence alignment as input; it builds a statistical model called a "hidden Markov model" which you can then use as a query into a sequence database to find (and/or align) additional homologues of the sequence family.

NCBI Tool Kit
Version(s): 1 | Support: Onsite
Established in 1988 as a national resource for molecular biology information, NCBI creates public databases, conducts research in computational biology, develops software tools for analyzing genome data, and disseminates biomedical information - all for the better understanding of molecular processes affecting human health and disease.
