GOTaxExplorer presents a new approach to comparative genomics that integrates functional information and families with the taxonomic classification. It integrates UniProt, Gene Ontology, NCBI Taxonomy, Pfam and SMART in one database. GOTaxExplorer provides four different query types: selection of entity sets, comparison of sets of Pfam families, semantic comparison of sets of GO terms, functional comparison of sets of gene products. This permits to select custom sets of GO terms, families or taxonomic groups. For example, it is possible to compare arbitrarily selected organisms or groups of organisms from the taxonomic tree on the basis of the functionality of their genes. Furthermore, it enables to determine the distribution of specific molecular functions or protein families in the taxonomy. The comparison of sets of GO terms allows to assess the semantic similarity of two different GO terms. The functional comparison of gene products makes it possible to identify functionally equivalent and functionally related gene products from two organisms on the basis of GO annotations and a semantic similarity measure for GO. Platform: Online tool, Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

http://www.informatics.jax.org/mgihome/GO/project.shtml

This resource is part of the Gene Ontology Consortium which seeks to provide controlled vocabularies for the description of the molecular function, biological process, and cellular component of gene products. These terms are to be used as attributes of gene products by collaborating databases, facilitating uniform queries across them. GO team members at MGI participate in ontology development, outreach, and functional curation of mouse gene products. The GO vocabularies have a hierarchical structure that permits a range of detail from high-level, broadly descriptive terms to very low level, highly specific terms. This broad range is useful both in annotating genes and in searching for gene information using these terms as search criteria. GO terms are defined, allowing all databases to use the terms consistently and properly. GO annotations in the databases additionally include the publication reference which allowed the association to be made and an evidence statement citing how the association was determined.

Gene Ontology for Motifs (GOMO) is an alignment- and threshold-free comparative genomics approach for assigning functional roles to DNA regulatory motifs from DNA sequence. The algorithm detects associations between a user-specified DNA regulatory motif (expressed as a position weight matrix; PWM) and Gene Ontology terms. The original method for predicting the roles of transcription factors (TFs starts with a PWM motif describing the DNA-binding affinity of the TF. GOMO uses the PWM to score the promoter region of each gene in the genome for its likelihood to be bound by the TF. The resulting ''''affinity'''' scores are then used to test each term in the Gene Ontology for association with high-scoring genes. The algorithm was subsequently extended to leverage conserved signals using multiple, related species in a comparative approach, which greatly improves the resulting annotations.

http://vortex.cs.wayne.edu/projects.htm#OE2GO

Onto-Express is a web-based tool in the Onto-Tools suite that performs automated function profiling for a list of differentially expressed genes. However, Onto-Express does not support functional profiling for the organisms that do not have annotations in public domain, or use of custom (i.e. user-defined) ontologies. This limitation is also true for most of the other existing tools for functional profiling, which means that researchers working with uncommon organisms and/or new annotations or ontologies may be forced to construct such profiles manually. Onto-Express To Go (OE2GO) is a new tool added to the Onto-Tools ensemble to address these issues. OE2GO is built on top of OE to leverage its existing functionality. In OE2GO, the users now have an option to use either the Onto-Tools database as a source of functional annotations or provide their own annotations in a separate file. Currently, OE2GO supports annotation file in the Gene Ontology format. Platform: Online tool, Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on July 31,2025. A web program that organizes lists of genes of interest (for example, under- and overexpressed genes from a microarray experiment) for biological interpretation in the context of the Gene Ontology and automates the analysis of multiple microarrays then integrates the results across all of them in exportable output files and visualizations. High-Throughput GoMiner is an enhancement of GoMiner and is implemented with both a command line interface and a web interface. The program can also: efficiently perform automated batch processing of an arbitrary number of microarrays; produce a human- or computer-readable report that rank-orders the multiple microarray results according to the number of significant GO categories; integrate the multiple microarray results by providing organized, global clustered image map visualizations of the relationships of significant GO categories; provide a fast form of false discovery rate multiple comparisons calculation; and provide annotations and visualizations for relating transcription factor binding sites to genes and GO categories.

http://gowiki.tamu.edu/wiki/

A wiki where users of the Gene Ontology can contribute and view notes about how specific GO terms are used. GONUTS can also be used as a GO term browser, or to search for GO annotations of specific genes from included organisms. The rationale for this wiki is based on helping new users of the gene ontology understand and use it. The GONUTS wiki is not an official product of the the Gene Ontology consortium. The GO consortium has a public wiki at their website, http://wiki.geneontology.org/. Maintaining the ontology involves many decisions to carefully choose terms and relationships. These decisions are currently made at GO meetings and via online discussion using the GO mailing lists and the Sourceforge curator request tracker. However, it is difficult for someone starting to use GO to understand these decisions. Some insight can be obtained by mining the tracker, the listservs and the minutes of GO meetings, but this is difficult, as these discussions are often dispersed and sometimes don't contain the GO accessions in the relevant messages. Wikis provide a way to create collaboratively written documentation for each GO term to explain how it should be used, how to satisfy the true path requirement, and whether an annotation should be placed at a different level. In addition, the wiki pages provide a discussion space, where users can post questions and discuss possible changes to the ontology. GONUTS is currently set up so anyone can view or search, but only registered users can edit or add pages. Currently registered users can create new users, and we are working to add at least one registered user for each participating database (So far we have registered users at EcoliHub, EcoCyc, GOA, BeeBase, SGD, dictyBase, FlyBase, WormBase, TAIR, Rat Genome Database, ZFIN, MGI, UCL and AgBase...
