Web-based microarray data analysis and visualization system powered by CRC, or Chinese Restaurant cluster, a Dirichlet process model-based clustering algorithm recently developed by Dr. Steve Qin. It also incorporates several gene expression analysis programs from Bioconductor, including GOStats, genefilter, and Heatplus. CRCView also installs from the Bioconductor system 78 annotation libraries of microarray chips for human (31), mouse (24), rat (14), zebrafish (1), chicken (1), Drosophila (3), Arabidopsis (2), Caenorhabditis elegans (1), and Xenopus Laevis (1). CRCView allows flexible input data format, automated model-based CRC clustering analysis, rich graphical illustration, and integrated Gene Ontology (GO)-based gene enrichment for efficient annotation and interpretation of clustering results. CRC has the following features comparing to other clustering tools: 1) able to infer number of clusters, 2) able to cluster genes displaying time-shifted and/or inverted correlations, 3) able to tolerate missing genotype data and 4) provide confidence measure for clusters generated. You need to register for an account in the system to store your data and analyses. The data and results can be visited again anytime you log in.

http://funspec.med.utoronto.ca/

FunSpec is a web-based tool for statistical evaluation of groups of genes and proteins (e.g. co-regulated genes, protein complexes, genetic interactors) with respect to existing annotations, including GO terms. FunSpec (an acronym for Functional Specification) inputs a list of yeast gene names, and outputs a summary of functional classes, cellular localizations, protein complexes, etc. that are enriched in the list. The classes and categories evaluated were downloaded from the MIPS Database and the GO Database . In addition, many published datasets have been compiled to evaluate enrichment against. Hypertext links to the publications are given. The p-values, calculated using the hypergeometric distribution, represent the probability that the intersection of given list with any given functional category occurs by chance. The Bonferroni-correction divides the p-value threshold, that would be deemed significant for an individual test, by the number of tests conducted and thus accounts for spurious significance due to multiple testing over the categories of a database. After the Bonferroni correction, only those categories are displayed for which the chance probability of enrichment is lower than: p-value/#CD where #CD is the number of categories in the selected database. Without the Bonferroni Correction, all categories are displayed for which the same probability of enrichment is lower than: p-value threshold in an individual test Note that many genes are contained in many categories, especially in the MIPS database (which are hierarchical) and that this can create biases for which FunSpec currently makes no compensation. Also the databases are treated as independent from one another, which is really not the case, and each is searched seperately, which may not be optimal for statistical calculations. Nonetheless, we find it useful for sifting through the results of clustering analysis, TAP pulldowns, etc. Platform: Online tool

https://omictools.com/ecgene-tool

Database of functional annotation for alternatively spliced genes. It uses a gene-modeling algorithm that combines the genome-based expressed sequence tag (EST) clustering and graph-theoretic transcript assembly procedures. It contains genome, mRNA, and EST sequence data, as well as a genome browser application. Organisms included in the database are human, dog, chicken, fruit fly, mouse, rhesus, rat, worm, and zebrafish. Annotation is provided for the whole transcriptome, not just the alternatively spliced genes. Several viewers and applications are provided that are useful for the analysis of the transcript structure and gene expression. The summary viewer shows the gene summary and the essence of other annotation programs. The genome browser and the transcript viewer are available for comparing the gene structure of splice variants. Changes in the functional domains by alternative splicing can be seen at a glance in the transcript viewer. Two unique ways of analyzing gene expression is also provided. The SAGE tags deduced from the assembled transcripts are used to delineate quantitative expression patterns from SAGE libraries available publicly. The cDNA libraries of EST sequences in each cluster are used to infer qualitative expression patterns.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented August 22, 2016. A database of candidate genes for mapped inherited human diseases. Candidate priorities are automatically established by a data mining algorithm that extracts putative genes in the chromosomal region where the disease is mapped, and evaluates their possible relation to the disease based on the phenotype of the disorder. Data analysis uses a scoring system developed for the possible functional relations of human genes to genetically inherited diseases that have been mapped onto chromosomal regions without assignment of a particular gene. Methodology can be divided in two parts: the association of genes to phenotypic features, and the identification of candidate genes on a chromosonal region by homology. This is an analysis of relations between phenotypic features and chemical objects, and from chemical objects to protein function terms, based on the whole MEDLINE and RefSeq databases.

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~jernst/stem/

The Short Time-series Expression Miner (STEM) is a Java program for clustering, comparing, and visualizing short time series gene expression data from microarray experiments (~8 time points or fewer). STEM allows researchers to identify significant temporal expression profiles and the genes associated with these profiles and to compare the behavior of these genes across multiple conditions. STEM is fully integrated with the Gene Ontology (GO) database supporting GO category gene enrichment analyses for sets of genes having the same temporal expression pattern. STEM also supports the ability to easily determine and visualize the behavior of genes belonging to a given GO category or user defined gene set, identifying which temporal expression profiles were enriched for these genes. (Note: While STEM is designed primarily to analyze data from short time course experiments it can be used to analyze data from any small set of experiments which can naturally be ordered sequentially including dose response experiments.)

A virtual database of annotations made by 50 database providers (April 2014) - and growing (see below), that map data to publication information. All NIF Data Federation sources can be part of this virtual database as long as they indicate the publications that correspond to data records. The format that NIF accepts is the PubMed Identifier, category or type of data that is being linked to, and a data record identifier. A subset of this data is passed to NCBI, as LinkOuts (links at the bottom of PubMed abstracts), however due to NCBI policies the full data records are not currently associated with PubMed records. Database providers can use this mechanism to link to other NCBI databases including gene and protein, however these are not included in the current data set at this time. (To view databases available for linking see, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK3807/#files.Databases_Available_for_Linking ) The categories that NIF uses have been standardized to the following types: * Resource: Registry * Resource: Software * Reagent: Plasmid * Reagent: Antibodies * Data: Clinical Trials * Data: Gene Expression * Data: Drugs * Data: Taxonomy * Data: Images * Data: Animal Model * Data: Microarray * Data: Brain connectivity * Data: Volumetric observation * Data: Value observation * Data: Activation Foci * Data: Neuronal properties * Data: Neuronal reconstruction * Data: Chemosensory receptor * Data: Electrophysiology * Data: Computational model * Data: Brain anatomy * Data: Gene annotation * Data: Disease annotation * Data: Cell Model * Data: Chemical * Data: Pathways For more information refer to Create a LinkOut file, http://neuinfo.org/nif_components/disco/interoperation.shtm Participating resources ( http://disco.neuinfo.org/webportal/discoLinkoutServiceSummary.do?id=4 ): * Addgene http://www.addgene.org/pgvec1 * Animal Imaging Database http://aidb.crbs.ucsd.edu * Antibody Registry http://www.neuinfo.org/products/antibodyregistry/ * Avian Brain Circuitry Database http://www.behav.org/abcd/abcd.php * BAMS Connectivity http://brancusi.usc.edu/ * Beta Cell Biology Consortium http://www.betacell.org/ * bioDBcore http://biodbcore.org/ * BioGRID http://thebiogrid.org/ * BioNumbers http://bionumbers.hms.harvard.edu/ * Brain Architecture Management System http://brancusi.usc.edu/bkms/ * Brede Database http://hendrix.imm.dtu.dk/services/jerne/brede/ * Cell Centered Database http://ccdb.ucsd.edu * CellML Model Repository http://www.cellml.org/models * CHEBI http://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/ * Clinical Trials Network (CTN) Data Share http://www.ctndatashare.org/ * Comparative Toxicogenomics Database http://ctdbase.org/ * Coriell Cell Repositories http://ccr.coriell.org/ * CRCNS - Collaborative Research in Computational Neuroscience - Data sharing http://crcns.org * Drug Related Gene Database https://confluence.crbs.ucsd.edu/display/NIF/DRG * DrugBank http://www.drugbank.ca/ * FLYBASE http://flybase.org/ * Gene Expression Omnibus http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/ * Gene Ontology Tools http://www.geneontology.org/GO.tools.shtml * Gene Weaver http://www.GeneWeaver.org * GeneDB http://www.genedb.org/Homepage * Glomerular Activity Response Archive http://gara.bio.uci.edu * GO http://www.geneontology.org/ * Internet Brain Volume Database http://www.cma.mgh.harvard.edu/ibvd/ * ModelDB http://senselab.med.yale.edu/modeldb/ * Mouse Genome Informatics Transgenes ftp://ftp.informatics.jax.org/pub/reports/MGI_PhenotypicAllele.rpt * NCBI Taxonomy Browser http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Taxonomy/taxonomyhome.html * NeuroMorpho.Org http://neuromorpho.org/neuroMorpho * NeuronDB http://senselab.med.yale.edu/neurondb * SciCrunch Registry http://neuinfo.org/nif/nifgwt.html?tab=registry * NIF Registry Automated Crawl Data http://lucene1.neuinfo.org/nif_resource/current/ * NITRC http://www.nitrc.org/ * Nuclear Receptor Signaling Atlas http://www.nursa.org * Olfactory Receptor DataBase http://senselab.med.yale.edu/ordb/ * OMIM http://omim.org * OpenfMRI http://openfmri.org * PeptideAtlas http://www.peptideatlas.org * RGD http://rgd.mcw.edu * SFARI Gene: AutDB https://gene.sfari.org/autdb/Welcome.do * SumsDB http://sumsdb.wustl.edu/sums/ * Temporal-Lobe: Hippocampal - Parahippocampal Neuroanatomy of the Rat http://www.temporal-lobe.com/ * The Cell: An Image Library http://www.cellimagelibrary.org/ * Visiome Platform http://platform.visiome.neuroinf.jp/ * WormBase http://www.wormbase.org * YPED http://medicine.yale.edu/keck/nida/yped.aspx * ZFIN http://zfin.org
