Exploiting the GeneCards Suite
Time and Place:
December 26, 2006, 10:00-12:00open in new windowLevine, Computer Classroom
GeneCards® (open in new windowhttp://www.genecards.org) is an integrated database of human genes that includes automatically-mined genomic, proteomic and transcriptomic information, as well as orthologies, disease relationships, SNPs, gene expression, gene function, and service links for ordering assays and antibodies.
Recent additions to the GeneCards suite include:
- GeneAlaCart: a batch query engine that extracts selected annotations associated with your genes of interest
- GeneDecks: a facility that provides sets of genes associated with a chosen gene, through similarity of GeneCards annotation
- GeneQArds: an internal tool, initially developed for Quality Assurance, and now used as a Query Aid for analysis, characterization, retrieving subsets, and calculating frequencies.
Bring your genes and gene sets about human genetics to this hands-on workshop, and the GeneCards team will:
- show you how to use the GeneCards suite to help find answers
- strongly consider incorporating your requests into future versions of the system.
This hands-on session will be given by Marilyn Safran from the Bioinformatics and Biological Computing Unit, and the GeneCards team from the Department of Molecular Genetics, W.I.S
