ToppGene Suite is a one-stop portal for gene list enrichment analysis and candidate gene prioritization based on functional annotations and protein interactions network. ToppGene Suite is a one-stop portal for (i) gene list functional enrichment, (ii) candidate gene prioritization using either functional annotations or network analysis and (iii) identification and prioritization of novel disease candidate genes in the interactome. Functional annotation-based disease candidate gene prioritization uses a fuzzy-based similarity measure to compute the similarity between any two genes based on semantic annotations. The similarity scores from individual features are combined into an overall score using statistical meta-analysis.

https://github.com/vlink/marge

Software package that integrates genome wide genetic variation with epigenetic data to identify collaborative transcription factor pairs. Optimized to work with chromatin accessibility assays such as ATAC-seq or DNase I hypersensitivity, as well as transcription factor binding data collected by ChIP-seq. Used to identify combinations of cell type specific transcription factors while simultaneously interpreting functional effects of non-coding genetic variation.

http://toppcluster.cchmc.org/

A tool for performing multi-cluster gene functional enrichment analyses on large scale data (microarray experiments with many time-points, cell-types, tissue-types, etc.). It facilitates co-analysis of multiple gene lists and yields as output a rich functional map showing the shared and list-specific functional features. The output can be visualized in tabular, heatmap or network formats using built-in options as well as third-party software. It uses the hypergeometric test to obtain functional enrichment achieved via the gene list enrichment analysis option available in ToppGene.

https://portal.bsc.gwu.edu/web/lifemoms

A consortium whose overall goal is to identify effective behavioral and lifestyle interventions that will improve weight, glycemic control and other pregnancy-related outcomes in obese and overweight pregnant women, and determine whether these interventions reduce obesity and metabolic abnormalities in their children. The study/consortium is comprised of seven clinical centers, with each clinical center conducting its own trial. Additional information on the consortium and individual trials is located in the Consortium Summaries tab.
