WhichGenes -- Web-based interactive gene set building tool
What you can do:
Find information about potential gene interactions in gene sets.
Highlights:
- WhichGenes is a web-based interactive gene set building tool offering a very simple interface to extract always-updated gene lists from multiple databases and unstructured biological data sources.
- While the user can specify new gene sets of interest by following a simple four-step wizard, the tool is able to run several queries in parallel.
- Every time a new set is generated, it is automatically added to the private gene-set cart and the user is notified by an e-mail containing a direct link to the new set stored in the server.
- WhichGenes provides functionalities to edit, delete and rename existing sets as well as the capability of generating new ones by combining previous existing sets (intersection, union and difference operators).
- The user can export his sets configuring the output format and selecting among multiple gene identifiers.
- In addition to the user-friendly environment, WhichGenes allows programmers to access its functionalities in a programmatic way through a Representational State Transfer web service.
