Here are a few more:

mpiBlast
http://mpiblast.lanl.gov/
A sequence database searching program. You give it a query sequence
and it searches a database for similar sequences.

POY
http://ftp.amnh.org/pub/people/wheeler/poy.
It builds trees of how sequences are related... (don't know how widly
used it is..). It runs on top of PVM.

BioPerl:
http://www.bioperl.org
It a Perl toolkit designed for bioinformatics. I not targeted at
clusters but it could give you a picture of some possible
applications.

Here a link to the proceedings of BOSC (Bioinformatics Open Source
Conference) 2002:
http://www.open-bio.org/bosc2002/program.html
You can proberbly find some funs things to look at there...
