g:Profiler-a web server for functional interpretation of gene lists (2016 update).

Nucleic acids research
Functional enrichment analysis is a key step in interpreting gene lists discovered in diverse high-throughput experiments. g:Profiler studies flat and ranked gene lists and finds statistically significant Gene Ontology terms, pathways and other gene ...

Extending gene ontology in the context of extracellular RNA and vesicle communication.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: To address the lack of standard terminology to describe extracellular RNA (exRNA) data/metadata, we have launched an inter-community effort to extend the Gene Ontology (GO) with subcellular structure concepts relevant to the exRNA domain....

ICEPO: the ion channel electrophysiology ontology.

Database : the journal of biological databases and curation
Ion channels are transmembrane proteins that selectively allow ions to flow across the plasma membrane and play key roles in diverse biological processes. A multitude of diseases, called channelopathies, such as epilepsies, muscle paralysis, pain syn...

The Disease Portals, disease-gene annotation and the RGD disease ontology at the Rat Genome Database.

Database : the journal of biological databases and curation
The Rat Genome Database (RGD;http://rgd.mcw.edu/) provides critical datasets and software tools to a diverse community of rat and non-rat researchers worldwide. To meet the needs of the many users whose research is disease oriented, RGD has created a...

GO annotation in InterPro: why stability does not indicate accuracy in a sea of changing annotations.

Database : the journal of biological databases and curation
The removal of annotation from biological databases is often perceived as an indicator of erroneous annotation. As a corollary, annotation stability is considered to be a measure of reliability. However, diverse data-driven events can affect the stab...

UniProt-DAAC: domain architecture alignment and classification, a new method for automatic functional annotation in UniProtKB.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
MOTIVATION: Similarity-based methods have been widely used in order to infer the properties of genes and gene products containing little or no experimental annotation. New approaches that overcome the limitations of methods that rely solely upon sequ...

LedPred: an R/bioconductor package to predict regulatory sequences using support vector machines.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
UNLABELLED: Supervised classification based on support vector machines (SVMs) has successfully been used for the prediction of cis-regulatory modules (CRMs). However, no integrated tool using such heterogeneous data as position-specific scoring matri...

Lynx: a knowledge base and an analytical workbench for integrative medicine.

Nucleic acids research
Lynx (http://lynx.ci.uchicago.edu) is a web-based database and a knowledge extraction engine. It supports annotation and analysis of high-throughput experimental data and generation of weighted hypotheses regarding genes and molecular mechanisms cont...

A-DaGO-Fun: an adaptable Gene Ontology semantic similarity-based functional analysis tool.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)
SUMMARY: Gene Ontology (GO) semantic similarity measures are being used for biological knowledge discovery based on GO annotations by integrating biological information contained in the GO structure into data analyses. To empower users to quickly com...

PDON: Parkinson's disease ontology for representation and modeling of the Parkinson's disease knowledge domain.

Theoretical biology & medical modelling
BACKGROUND: Despite the unprecedented and increasing amount of data, relatively little progress has been made in molecular characterization of mechanisms underlying Parkinson's disease. In the area of Parkinson's research, there is a pressing need to...
