HMMER

The HMMER hidden Markov model software package and other software for large-scale genome analysis using probabilistic models of proteins and RNAs, from Sean Eddy's lab at Washington University, St. Louis USA.

  • HMMER -- Hidden Markov models for sequence profile analysis. Hidden Markov model based profiles (profile-HMMs) can be used to do sensitive database searching and multiple sequence alignment, using statistical descriptions of a sequence family's consensus.
  • PFAM -- a database of multiple alignments covering most well known protein domain families, including things like SH2, kinase catalytic domains, immunoglobulin superfamily domains, and so on.
  • COVE -- an implementation of stochastic context free grammar methods for RNA sequence/structure analysis.
  • TRNASCAN-SE -- tRNA detection in large-scale genome sequence.
  • RNABOB -- Pattern searching for RNA secondary structures.
  • SQUID -- A C library that much of the above software bundles in.
