Visit the bioc-sig-sequencing news group (Cc'd in the reply) Current packages include Biostrings (for lots of string matching / manipulation facilities) and ShortRead (for IO from ELAND or MAQ, for instance, plus additional sorting, counting, and qa-related functionality. There are posts in the bioc-sig-sequencing news group about package use. Maybe others will reply (to bioc-sig-sequencing) with additional developments; I know people are working with and developing packages for this data in R. Martin
goCluster goCluster is a tool for the analysis of expression data in conjunction with annotation data The package provides an object- oriented “framework” that allows to flexibly combine plugins to a specialized analysis method. goCluster provides modules for annotation data as well as clustering, statistical, and visualization methods. goCluster Structure: 6 abstract classes define the general structure of the analysis task. Each abstract class can be filled with a specific module fullfilling the requested function in a special way. goCluster clusterData clusterAnnotation clusterAlgorithm clusterSignif clusterStatistic clusterVisual Biological process Example analysis: The plot shows a section of a hierarchical clustering that has been combined with gene ontology data using goCluster. The package has been able to automatically detect regions in the clustering that are enriched for specific GO-terms.

GLAD: Gain and Loss Analysis of DNA GLAD is devoted to the analysis of array CGH data (Comparative Genomic Hybridization) ✔ It allows the identification of breakpoints ✔ It detects outliers ✔ Each chromosomal regions are given a status (Gain, Normal or Loss) ✔ Plot functions are available to draw genomic profiles package required: AWS Reference: Hupé et al., Bioinformatics (2004) contact: web site:
Why I am falling in love with bioconductor Versatile and powerful– Room for development, customized analysis, hundreds of software packages Runs only Everything – Laptops, Servers, Windows, Linux, Unix, Ultrasparc Support – Hundreds of bioinformaticians, biologists, Statisticians, IT dudes, mailing list, etc Free!!!!
What are we waiting for?
