Science packages

Amber9: Assisted Model Building with Energy Refinement (Amber) is a set of molecular mechanical force fields for the simulation of biomolecules, and a package of molecular simulation programs that includes source code and demos.
AutoDock: AutoDock is a suite of automated docking tools designed to predict how small molecules, such as substrates or drug candidates, bind to a receptor of known 3D structure.
Note: You must hold an external license to use this software.
BLASTZ: BLASTZ is a multiple sequence alignment program for the whole-genome human-mouse alignments.
Boxshade: Boxshade creates shaded or colored printouts from multiple-aligned DNA or protein sequences. The program does not align sequences but stylizes multiple alignments.

Cri-map: Cri-map performs largely automated construction of multilocus linkage maps (and facilitates the attendant tasks of assessing support relative to alternative locus orders, generating LOD tables, and detecting data errors).
DOCK5 and DOCK6: DOCK is a parallel package that identifies molecules "docking" to each other. In general, docking is the identification of the low-energy binding modes of a small molecule, or ligand, within the active site of a macromolecule, or receptor, whose structure is known.
Note: You must hold an external license to use this software.
ESPRESSO: Quantum ESPRESSO is an integrated suite of computer codes for electronic structure calculations and materials modeling at the nanoscale. It is based on density functional theory, plane waves, and pseudopotentials (both 32- and 64-bit addressing are available).

MERLIN: MERLIN uses sparse trees to represent gene flow in pedigrees and is one of the fastest pedigree analysis packages available.

PedMerge: PedMerge is a program that merges extended pedigrees.
PedStats: The PedStats utility summarizes the contents of pedigree files and can produce graphical output in PDF format.

Prelude: Prelude prepares data and pedigree files in QTDT format to be analyzed by SimWalk2 or Genehunter.
PROCHECK: PROCHECK is a suite of programs for assessing the stereochemical quality of a given protein structure.
