Next Gen Sequencing Analysis Tools
used to find splice-junctions in RNAseq data. Mega fast, for a 12Mb genome and quite a few million reads it runs in ~10 hours on a single macbook! Also try out Cufflinks, it seems to work very nicely.
an easy-to-use genome browser suitable for displaying masses of data!
convert between SAM and BAM, indexing etc.
useful for manipulating bed/gff, bam to bed conversion.
Other
"", to detect phase of gene expression. It seems to be a very quick script, though a pain to get to run. Repeated attempts to get it going on my macbook failed, I managed to get it running under Windows using Python 2.6, R 2.9.1, scipy 0.7, numpy 1.4 (scipy 0.7 needs this), matplotlib 1.0.1 and the latest version of rpy (NOT rpy2!). You also need to make sure you have the required R extensions.
