BioJava
BioJava is an open-source project dedicated to providing Java
tools for processing biological data. It provides analytical
and statistical routines, parsers for common file formats and allows
the manipulation of sequences and 3D structures. The goal of the
biojava project is to facilitate rapid application development for
bioinformatics. It is a package that contains class files and
objects that implement Java code to be used for a variety of things.
BioJava is used in many different projects. These include
Dazzle (a BioJava based DAS server), Bioclipse (an open source
workbench for chemo- and bioinformatics with powerful editing and
visualization capabilities), Bioweka (an open source biological data
mining application), and Geneious (a molecular biology toolkit).
Features include:
- Objects for manipulating biological sequences
- File parsers
- DAS client and server support
- Access to BioSQL and
Ensembl databases
- Tools for making sequence analysis GUIs
- Powerful
analysis and statistical routines including a dynamic programming
toolkit
