The Integrated Tool for IC-based GO Semantic Similarity Measures (IT-GOM) integrates the currently known GO semantic similarity measures into a single tool. It provides the information content (IC) of GO terms, semantic similarity between GO terms and GO-based protein functional similarity scores. The specificity of GO terms and the similarity of biological content between GO terms or proteins are transformed into numeric values for protein analyses at the functional level. The integration of the different measures enables users to choose the measure best suited to their application and to compare results between different semantic similarity measures.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 10, 2012. Cluster Assignment for Biological Inference (CLASSIFI) is a data-mining tool that can be used to identify significant co-clustering of genes with similar functional properties (e.g. cellular response to DNA damage). Briefly, CLASSIFI uses the Gene Ontology gene annotation scheme to define the functional properties of all genes/probes in a microarray data set, and then applies a cumulative hypergeometric distribution analysis to determine if any statistically significant gene ontology co-clustering has occurred.

ProteInOn calculates semantic similarity between GO terms or proteins annotated with GO terms. It also calculates term enrichment of protein sets, by applying a term representativity score, and gives additional information on protein interactions. The query compute protein semantic similarity returns the semantic similarity scores between all proteins entered, in matrix format. The option Measure allows users to choose one of several semantic similarity measures: Resnik, Lin, or Jiang & Conrath's measures with or without the DCA approach, plus the graph-based simUI and simGIC measures. These measures are listed by order of performance as evaluated with protein sequence similarity. The option GO type allows users to choose one of the aspects of GO: molecular function, biological process and cellular component. The option Ignore IEA limits the query to non-electronic annotations, excluding evidence types: IEA, NAS, ND, NR.

http://crcview.hegroup.org/

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

http://www.ucl.ac.uk/cardiovasculargeneontology/

Full Gene Ontology annotation to genes associated with cardiovascular processes. Every GO annotation made, is attributed to an identified source, such as a publication identifier (PMID), and an indication of the type of evidence which supports the association between the gene product and the GO term. Over 4,000 cardiovascular associated genes have been identified. A variety of tools have been provided to enable cardiovascular scientists to review the annotation of their ''''favorite'''' gene and suggest information that may be missing, inaccurate or incomplete in these annotations. Annotation suggestions can be sent through the feedback form or by email. The Gene Ontology (GO) vocabulary is the established standard for the functional annotation of gene products. By using GO to curate scientific literature and by integrating results from high-quality high-throughput experiments they will create an information-rich resource for the cardiovascular-research community, enabling researchers to rapidly evaluate and interpret existing data and generate hypotheses to guide future research.

The GO Consortium coordinates an effort to maximize and optimize the GO annotation of a large and representative set of key genomes, known as ''reference genomes''. The goal of the Reference Genome Annotation project is to completely annotate twelve reference genomes so that those annotations may be used to effectively seed the automatic annotation efforts of other genomes. With more and more genomes being sequenced, we are in the middle of an explosion of genomic information. The limited resources to manually annotate the growing number of sequenced genomes imply that automatic annotation will be the method of choice for many groups. The Reference Genome project has two primary goals: to increase the depth and breadth of annotations for genes in each of the organisms in the project, and to create data sets and tools that enable other genome annotation efforts to infer GO annotations for homologous genes in their organisms. In addition, the project has several important incidental benefits, such as increasing annotation consistency across genome databases, and providing important improvements to the GO''s logical structure and biological content. All GO annotations from this project are included in the gene association files that each group submits to GO. Annotations can also be viewed using the GO search engine and browser AmiGO. Annotated families can be viewed with the homolog set browser.
