Open Source Java Bio-Informatics Software

Over 1,000,000 page views per month. Jmol/JSmol is a molecular viewer for 3D chemical structures that runs in four independent modes: an HTML5-only web application utilizing jQuery, a Java applet, a stand-alone Java program (Jmol.jar), and a "headless" server-side component (JmolData.jar). Jmol can read many file types, including PDB, CIF, SDF, MOL, PyMOL PSE files, and Spartan files, as well as output from Gaussian, GAMESS, MOPAC, VASP, CRYSTAL, CASTEP, QuantumEspresso, VMD, and many other quantum chemistry programs. Files can be transferred directly from several databases, including RCSB, EDS, NCI, PubChem, and MaterialsProject. Multiple files can be loaded and compared. A rich scripting language and a well-developed web API allow easy customization of the user interface. Features include interactive animation and linear morphing. Jmol interfaces well with JSpecView for spectroscopy, JSME for 2D->3D conversion, POV-Ray for images, and CAD programs for 3D printing (VRML export).

GATA is a graphic alignment tool for comparative sequence analysis. It makes use of BLAST to graphically align two DNA sequences, creating box- line- box representations of window scored local alignments. GATA also displays extensive GFF gene annotation.

JBioFramework (JBF) is a set of two different chemical separations simulations (2D Electrophoresis and Mass Spectrometry) that are frequently used in chemistry, biochemistry and proteomics research. It is written in the Java programming language and will run on any and all systems that have the JVM installed. As we continue to develop the software over the coming months/years and attempt to quantify the success of our efforts with testing and reviews, user input is very important. Please don't hesitate to review the software below or email Paul Craig [pac8612@rit.edu] with larger descriptions/bugs/feature ideas. Our next scheduled release will contain (in addition to 2DE and MassSpec) a 1D Electrophoresis simulation as well as a tab containing ChemAxon's MarvinSketch [http://www.chemaxon.com/products/marvin/] along with some improved functionality. It should be out shortly as we complete the creation and modification of a permanent domain for the project.

The Cybertory™ Virtual Molecular Biology Laboratory is an on-line virtual environment for conducting simulated experiments in molecular genetics.

DORY is a java program developed for searching KASH protein in large protein databases (in FASTA format). DORY is upgraded to DORY2. DORY2 required BLAST+ to run. ***Please make sure BLAST+ is installed on your computer.*** Please see the following publication for detail: Zhou X, Graumann K, Wirthmueller L, Jones JDG, Meier I (2014) Identification of unique SUN-interacting nuclear envelope proteins with diverse functions in plants. The Journal of Cell Biology 205(5):677-692. http://jcb.rupress.org/content/205/5/677.full Please see other useful tools for biology research: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cloversystem/?source=directory

Java API for implementing any kind of Genetic Algorithm and Genetic Programming applications quickly and easily. Contains a wide range of ready-to-use GA and GP algorithms and operators to be plugged-in or extended. Includes Tutorials and Examples.

Based on the not-so-successful Pysimony (https://sourceforge.net/projects/pysimony/), the same determined student takes another go at the phylogenetic problem. Javamony is invoked as follows: java -jar Javamony.jar [input.fasta] [random / stepwise (starting tree)] [# of bootstraps] [outgroup taxon #1] [outgroup taxon #2] ... Not meant as a competitive phylogenetic inference program, Javamony is an opportunity for me to acquire the Java language while learning to address and solve fundamental problems in phylogenetics. Therefore, for my own educational benefit, all code is original. Of course, there are probably a good deal of mistakes as well. I distribute Javamony, as I did Pysimony, hoping that it will be of educational value to someone else or at least vaguely amusing. Upcoming features will be: - Support for Amino Acid sequences - Support for additional file formats (e.g. Nexus) - Multithreading - Additional scoring methods (e.g. maximum likelihood)

A software tool enabling the user to browse through an image stack created by a confocal microscope. Points can be plotted through the stack, producing a digital 3D representation, which can be viewed in 3D and compared with other plots.
