 Description: Debian Med micro-biology packages
  This metapackage will install Debian packages related to molecular biology,
  structural biology and bioinformatics for use in life sciences.
-
-X-Begin-Category: Phylogenetic analysis
-
-Depends: altree
-Remark: altree 1.1.0 should be not be packaged
- According to Vincent Danjean <vdanjean.ml at free.fr> version 1.1.0 should not
- be packaged for two reasons:
- .
-  1. New dependencies (libtamuanova-perl, nanova and libnanova-perl) which
-     need to be packaged.
-  2. There are still bugs in the new method added in altree 1.1.0 and the doc
-     is not updated.
- .
- See http://lists.debian.org/debian-med/2009/08/msg00104.html for further
- details.

-         would hide them from the tasks and bugs list as well from the sectioning in
-         http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=debian-med-packaging@lists.alioth.debian.org&ordering=3
-         so they are mentioned here in addition to autodocktools.

-         This was changed by adding Enhances field to the packages in question.

-Pkg-Description: motif discovery and search
- MEME is a tool for discovering motifs in a group of related DNA or protein
- sequences.  A motif is a sequence pattern that occurs repeatedly in a group
- of related protein or DNA sequences. MEME represents motifs as position-dependent
- letter-probability matrices which describe the probability of each possible
- letter at each position in the pattern. Individual MEME motifs do not contain
- gaps. Patterns with variable-length gaps are split by MEME into two or more
- separate motifs.
- .
- MEME takes as input a group of DNA or protein sequences (the training set)
- and outputs as many motifs as requested. MEME uses statistical modeling
- techniques to automatically choose the best width, number of occurrences,
- and description for each motif.

-Pkg-Description: command line program for finding patterns in nucleic acids

- DNA, but has been extended to other types of matching. It now handles
- degenerate sequence input in a variety of matching approaches, as well as
- patterns with errors, regular expressions and TRANSFAC-formatted matrices.
- .
- It was designed to be a grep for DNA and like the original grep, its
- capabilities have grown so that now the author has to keep calling up the help
- page to figure out which flags (now ~50) mean what. tacg is NOT a GUI
- application in any sense. However, it's existance as a strictly command-line
- tool lends itself well to Webification and wrapping by various GUI tools and
- it is now distributed with a web interface form and a Perl CGI handler.
- Additionally, it can easily be integrated into editors that support shell
- commands such as nedit.

- Hidden Markov Model (GPHMM) to predict genes in two closely related
- eukaryotic genomes simultaneously.  It utilizes the MUMmer package to
- perform approximate alignment before applying a GPHMM based on an
- enhanced version of the TigrScan gene finder.  TWAIN was written by
- Bill Majoros and Mihaela Pertea while at The Institute for Genomic
- Research (TIGR).
- .
- TWAIN consists of two components: (1) ROSE, the Region Of Synteny
- Extractor, which identifies contiguous regions likely to contain one
- or more syntenic genes, and (2) OASIS, a generalized pair hidden
- Markov model (GPHMM) for predicting genes in the regions identified
- by ROSE.  The system utilizes approximate alignments constructed by
- the PROmer and NUCmer programs in the MUMmer package to assess
- approximate alignment scores efficiently.  More detailed information
- on the architecture of this system will be made available soon.
- Slides from a talk at Computational Genomics 2004 are now available.

-Pkg-Description: Region-Of-Synteny Extractor
- ROSE is a program which identifies regions between two genomes which
- are likely to contain orthologous genes. The two genomes are given as
- two multi fasta files of DNA sequences. The PROmer program from the
- MUMmer package needs to be run first between the two genomes, and the
- resulting delta file is then input to ROSE. If a previous annotation
- is available for one or both genomes, then the coordinates of the
- annotated genes from a genome can be optionally given as input in a
- gff file. The gene coordinates will be used to guide the length of
- the regions produced by ROSE. By default, when finding a region of
- consistent alignments, ROSE will add a user-defined margin (1000 bp
- by default) on either side of that region. When a predicted gene
- overlaps an alignment we use the gene prediction to extend the
- boundaries of the output region.

- GeneZilla is a state-of-the-art program for computational prediction
- of protein-coding genes in eukaryotic DNA, and is based on the
- Generalized Hidden Markov Model (GHMM) framework, similar to GENSCAN
- and GENIE. It is highly reconfigurable and includes software for
- retraining by the end-user. It is written in highly optimized C++ and
- runs under most UNIX/Linux platforms. The run time and memory
- requirements are linear in the sequence length, and are in general
- much better than those of competing systems, due to GeneZilla's novel
- decoding algorithm. Graph-theoretic representations of the high
- scoring open reading frames are provided, allowing for exploration of
- sub-optimal gene models. It utilizes Interpolated Markov Models
- (IMMs), Maximal Dependence Decomposition (MDD), and includes states
- for signal peptides, branch points, TATA boxes, CAP sites, and will
- soon model CpG islands as well.
- .
- GeneZilla is an open-source project hosted at bioinformatics.org and
- currently consists of ~20,000 lines of code.  GeneZilla evolved out
- of the ab initio eukaryotic gene finder TIGRscan, which was developed
- at The Institute for Genomic Research over a 3-year period under NIH
- grants R01-LM06845 and R01-LM007938, and which served as the basis

-Pkg-Description: Transcript Annotation Prioritization and Screening System
- TrAPSS stands for Transcript Annotation Prioritization and Screening
- System. It is a system comprised of several tools written by
- researchers at the Coordinated Lab for Computational Genomics in the
- University of Iowa. The system aims to aid scientists who are
- searching for the genetic mutation or mutations that are linked to
- expression of a disease phentotype. The system offers support for
- almost all areas of a mutation discovery project from the creation
- and prioritization of a large candidate gene list, to the selection,
- ordering, and managing of primer pairs, and even support for SSCP
- assay results. TrAPSS is a currently deployed and often used tool for
- several laboratories here at the University of Iowa in the College of
- Medicine. The system is composed of several Java applications, many
- web-based PHP tools, and a local MySQL database. Even the Java
- applications are available through a web browser due to Sun's Java
- Web Start. Director of the CLCG, Professor Terry A. Braun, heads the
- project along with Dr. Todd Scheetz and Prof. Thomas
- L. Casavant. Eight developers create and maintain the software:
- Bartley Brown , Hakeem Almabrazi, Steven Davis and Jason Grundstad;
- along with three graduate students, Brian O'Leary, John Ritchison and
- Michael Smith; and one undergraduate student, Matthew Kemp.
- Importance of TrAPSS
- .
- The true importance of TrAPSS is that it is based upon a novel way to
- examine a large candidate list of genes. Rather than sequentially
- examining full genes, the scheme often followed in current target
- identification projects, TrAPSS provides tools that offer the user
- the opportunity to screen certain small parts of several genes from
- the candidate list at once. This "parallel" screening idea was
- envisioned by researchers here at the University of Iowa including
- Dr. Edwin Stone and Prof. Thomas L. Casavant. Research by graduate
- students Steven Davis and Brian O'Leary has demonstrated the
- advantage of the parallel screening method over the sequential
- sequencing of large candidate lists.
