Publicly Accessible Galaxy Servers

The Galaxy Project's public server (usegalaxy.org) can meet many needs, but it is not suitable for everything (see Choices for why). Fortunately the Galaxy Community is helping out by installing Galaxy at their institutions and then making those installations either publicly available or open to their organizations or community. This page lists publicly accessible Galaxy servers. To be included here a server must be accessible to any academic researcher anywhere in the world. Some servers may require logins and enforce quotas.

If you maintain a public instance of Galaxy it is recommended to sign up for the public servers mailing list to receive security fixes with priority.

Galaxy Services

There are also a number of Galaxy services that make Galaxy available to research communities, sometimes restricted on a geographical or domain basis. See the Galaxy services list.

General Purpose / Genomics Servers

These servers implement a broad range of tools and aren't specific to any part of the tree of life, or to any specific type of analysis. These are servers you can use when want to do general genomic analysis.

In Silico Galaxy

In Silico Galaxy
  • Link:
  • Domain/Purpose:
    • Construction, analysis, and visualization of gene-gene interaction networks for sequencing data.
  • Comments:
    • Implements Encore, "an open source network analysis pipeline for genome-wide association studies and rare variant data. Encore constructs Genetic Association Interaction Networks or epistasis networks using two optional approaches: our previous information-theory method or a generalized linear model approach. Additionally, Encore includes multiple data filtering options, including Random Forest/Random Jungle for main effect enrichment and Evaporative Cooling and Relief-F filters for enrichment of interaction effects. Encore implements SNPrank network centrality for identifying susceptibility hubs (nodes containing a large amount of disease susceptibility information through the combination of multivariate main effects and multiple gene-gene interactions in the network)"

  • Link:
  • Domain/Purpose:
    • Provides implementations of InMoDe, CRISPRer, TALgetter, TALgetterLong, TALENoffer, and Dimont
  • Comments:
    • Provides implementations of these tools:
      • InMoDe is a collection of Tools for learning and visualizing inhomogeneous parsimonious Markov models (iPMMs).
      • CRISPRer is a tool for genome-wide selection and assessment of CRISPR/Cas protospacers.
      • TALgetter allows you to scan input sequences for putative target sites of a given TAL (transcription activator-like) effector as typically expressed by many Xanthomonas bacteria.
      • TALgetterLong allows you to scan input sequences for putative target sites of a given TAL (transcription activator-like) effector as typically expressed by many Xanthomonas bacteria in large input data, but lacks some of the features of TALgetter (e.g., computation of empirical p-values).
      • TALENoffer is a tool for predicting off-targets of TAL effector nucleases (TALENs).
      • Dimont (beta) is a universal tool for de-novo motif discovery. Dimont has successfully been applied to ChIP-seq, ChIP-exo and protein-binding microarray (PBM) data.
    • These applications were developed by the groups of Bioinformatics and Pattern Recognition and/or Bioinformatics in collaboration with internal and external partners.

MBAC Metabiome Portal
  • Link(s):
  • Domain/Purpose:
    • Simplifying control, usage, access, and analysis of microbiome, metabolome, and immunome data (the Metabiome).
  • Comments:
    • We have developed the MBAC Metabiome Portal, a flexible and customizable webserver, with the aim of simplifying control, usage, access, and analysis of microbiome, metabolome, and immunome data (the Metabiome).
    • The Portal uses a relational database management system and distributed analytical resources and includes several tools such as sequence clustering, filtering sequencing artifacts, taxonomic analysis, and functional annotation. Users access the MBAC Metabiome Portal through a Galaxy based web browser to perform individual and group analysis and share their results. Programming support is also available to configure and run customized pipelines.
  • User Support:
  • Quotas:
    • We have opened up the MBAC Metabiome Portal to unregistered users to share data and analysis tools. Computationally intensive tools are restricted to in house use. Anonymous users are restricted to a 50 mb disk quota.

MiModD NacreousMap

Baumeister Lab Galaxy featuring MiModD
  • Link:
  • Domain/Purpose:
    • NacreousMap mapping/plotting tool of MiModD for users of MiModD who do not want to install the required dependencies (R and rpy2) for graphical output from this tool on their local system.
  • Comments:
    • MiModD is a comprehensive software package for the identification and annotation of mutations in the genomes of model organisms from whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data.
    • CloudMap users can replot data produced with the Hawaiian Variant Mapping tool using the NacreousMap engine to obtain optimized (much smaller files that display faster) plots.
    • To install the complete MiModD package for use as a command line tool or for integration into any local Galaxy follow the installation instructions in the MiModD User Guide.
  • User Support:
  • Quotas:
    • The quota for anonymous usage is 50MB, registered users have 250MB available.
    • You can analyze/plot data in VCF format or the "Per variant report" format generated by local runs of the MiModD NacreousMap tool. The latter has the advantage of being up to 20 times smaller than the corresponding VCF file.

ODoSE: Ortholog Direction of Selection Engine
  • Link:
  • Domain/Purpose:
    • Webserver for genome-wide calculation of adaptive divergence in prokaryotes.
  • Comments:
    • "The web-based graphical user-interface ODoSE (Ortholog Direction of Selection Engine) identifies all orthologs between a set of strains and allows the calculation of a novel extension of the [McDonald Kreitman] MK test, the Direction of Selection (DoS) statistic as well as the calculation of the Neutrality Index (NI) statistic for all genes shared by two taxonomic groups combined. The engine also generates the site frequency spectrum for each gene allowing one to apply more advanced methods for estimating the distribution of fitness effects and rates of adaptive evolution."
