http://vortex.cs.wayne.edu/projects.htm#Onto-Translate

In the annotation world, the same piece of information can be stored and viewed differently across different databases. For instance, more than one Affymetrix probe ID can refer to the same GenBank sequence (accession number) and more than one nucleotide sequence from GenBank can be grouped in a single UniGene cluster. The result of Onto-Express depends on whether the input list contains Affymetrix probe IDs, GenBank accession numbers or UniGene cluster IDs. The user has to be aware of relations between the different forms of the data in order to interpret correctly the results. Even if the user is aware of the relationships and knows how to convert them, most existing tools allow conversions of individual genes. Onto-Translate is a tool that allows the user to perform easily such translations. Affymetrix probe IDs, etc., translate GO terms into other identifiers like GenBank accession number, Uniprot IDs. User account required. Platform: Online tool

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.

http://www.gotaxexplorer.de/

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.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/biosystems/

Database that provides access to biological systems and their component genes, proteins, and small molecules, as well as literature describing those biosystems and other related data throughout Entrez. A biosystem, or biological system, is a group of molecules that interact directly or indirectly, where the grouping is relevant to the characterization of living matter. BioSystem records list and categorize components, such as the genes, proteins, and small molecules involved in a biological system. The companion FLink tool, in turn, allows you to input a list of proteins, genes, or small molecules and retrieve a ranked list of biosystems. A number of databases provide diagrams showing the components and products of biological pathways along with corresponding annotations and links to literature. This database was developed as a complementary project to (1) serve as a centralized repository of data; (2) connect the biosystem records with associated literature, molecular, and chemical data throughout the Entrez system; and (3) facilitate computation on biosystems data. The NCBI BioSystems Database currently contains records from several source databases: KEGG, BioCyc (including its Tier 1 EcoCyc and MetaCyc databases, and its Tier 2 databases), Reactome, the National Cancer Institute's Pathway Interaction Database, WikiPathways, and Gene Ontology (GO). It includes several types of records such as pathways, structural complexes, and functional sets, and is desiged to accomodate other record types, such as diseases, as data become available. Through these collaborations, the BioSystems database facilitates access to, and provides the ability to compute on, a wide range of biosystems data. If you are interested in depositing data into the BioSystems database, please contact them.

Project that developed an open access discovery platform, called Open Pharmacological Space (OPS), via a semantic web approach, integrating pharmacological data from a variety of information resources and tools and services to question this integrated data to support pharmacological research. The project is based upon the assimilation of data already stored as triples, in the form subject-predicate-object. The software and data are available for download and local installation, under an open source and open access model. Tools and services are provided to query and visualize this data, and a sustainability plan will be in place, continuing the operation of the Open PHACTS Discovery Platform after the project funding ends. Throughout the project, a series of recommendations will be developed in conjunction with the community, building on open standards, to ensure wide applicability of the approaches used for integration of data.

http://biomine.cs.helsinki.fi/

Service that integrates cross-references from several biological databases into a graph model with multiple types of edges, such as protein interactions, gene-disease associations and gene ontology annotations. Edges are weighted based on their type, reliability, and informativeness. In particular, it formulates protein interaction prediction and disease gene prioritization tasks as instances of link prediction. The predictions are based on a proximity measure computed on the integrated graph.

http://kt.ijs.si/software/SEGS/

A web tool for descriptive analysis of microarray data. The analysis is performed by looking for descriptions of gene sets that are statistically significantly over- or under-expressed between different scenarios within the context of a genome-scale experiments (DNA microarray). Descriptions are defined by using the terms from the Gene Ontology (GO), the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways and gene-gene interactions found in the ENTREZ database. Gene annotations by GO and KEGG terms can also be found in the ENTREZ database. The tool provides three procedures for testing the enrichment of the gene sets (over- or under-expressed): Fisher's exact test, GSEA and PAGE, and option for combining the results of the tests. Because of the multiple-hypothesis testing nature of the problem, all the p-values are computed using the permutation testing method.

http://www.t-profiler.org

One of the key challenges in the analysis of gene expression data is how to relate the expression level of individual genes to the underlying transcriptional programs and cellular state. The T-profiler tool hosted on this website uses the t-test to score changes in the average activity of pre-defined groups of genes. The gene groups are defined based on Gene Ontology categorization, ChIP-chip experiments, upstream matches to a consensus transcription factor binding motif, and location on the same chromosome, respectively. If desired, an iterative procedure can be used to select a single, optimal representative from sets of overlapping gene groups. A jack-knife procedure is used to make calculations more robust against outliers. T-profiler makes it possible to interpret microarray data in a way that is both intuitive and statistically rigorous, without the need to combine experiments or choose parameters. Currently, gene expression data from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans are supported. Users can submit their microarray data for analysis by clicking on one of the two organism-specific tabs above. Platform: Online tool
