GOstat is a tool that allows you to find statistically overrepresented Gene Ontologies within a group of genes. The Gene-Ontology database (GO: http://www.geneontology.org) provides a useful tool to annotate and analyze the function of large numbers of genes. Modern experimental techniques, as e.g. DNA microarrays, often result in long lists of genes. To learn about the biology in this kind of data it is desirable to find functional annotation or Gene-Ontology groups which are highly represented in the data. This program (GOstat) should help in the analysis of such lists and will provide statistics about the GO terms contained in the data and sort the GO annotations giving the most representative GO terms first. Run GOstat: * Go to search form - Computes GO statistics of a list of genes selected from a microarray. * GOstat Display - You can store results from a previously run and view them here, either by uploading them as a file or putting them on a selected URL. * Upload Custom GO Annotations - This allows you to upload your own GO annotation database and use it with GOstat. Variants of GOstat: * Rank GOstat - Takes input from all genes on microarray instead of using a fixed cutoff and uses ranks using a Wilcoxon test or either ranks or pvalues to score GOs using Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistics. * Gene Abundance GOstats - Takes input from all genes on microarray and sums up the gene abundances for each GO to compute statistics. * Two list GOstat - Compares GO statistics in two independent lists of genes, not necessarily one of them being the complete list the other list is sampled from. Platform: Online tool, THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on September 16,2025.

A database integrating data from the bee brain EST sequencing project with data from sequencing and gene research projects from other organisms, primarily the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. The goal of Bee-ESTdb is to provide updated information on the genes of the honey bee, currently using annotation primarily from flies to suggest cellular roles, biological functions, and evolutionary relationships. The site allows searches by sequence ID, EST annotations, Gene Ontology terms, Contig ID and using BLAST. Very nice resource for those interested in comparative genomics of brain. A normalized unidirectional cDNA library was made in the laboratory of Prof. Bento Soares, University of Iowa. The library was subsequently subtracted. Over 20,000 cDNA clones were partially sequenced from the normalized and subtracted libraries at the Keck Center, resulting in 15,311 vector-trimmed, high-quality, sequences with an average read length of 494 bp. and average base-quality of 41. These sequences were assembled into 8966 putatively unique sequences, which were tested for similarity to sequences in the public databases with a variety of BLAST searches. The Clemson University Genomics Institute is the distributor of these public domain cDNA clones. For information on how to purchase an individual clone or the entire collection, please contact www.genome.clemson.edu/orders/ or generobi (at) life.uiuc.edu.

GoMiner is a tool for biological interpretation of "omic" data including data from gene expression microarrays. Omic experiments often generate lists of dozens or hundreds of genes that differ in expression between samples, raising the question, What does it all mean biologically? To answer this question, GoMiner leverages the Gene Ontology (GO) to identify the biological processes, functions and components represented in these lists. Instead of analyzing microarray results with a gene-by-gene approach, GoMiner classifies the genes into biologically coherent categories and assesses these categories. The insights gained through GoMiner can generate hypotheses to guide additional research. GoMiner displays the genes within the framework of the Gene Ontology hierarchy in two ways: * In the form of a tree, similar to that in AmiGO * In the form of a "Directed Acyclic Graph" (DAG) The program also provides: * Quantitative and statistical analysis * Seamless integration with important public databases GoMiner uses the databases provided by the GO Consortium. These databases combine information from a number of different consortium participants, include information from many different organisms and data sources, and are referenced using a variety of different gene product identification approaches.

Profiling of Complex Functionality (ProfCom) is a web-based tool for the functional interpretation of a gene list that was identified to be related by experiments. A trait which makes ProfCom a unique tool is an ability to profile enrichments of not only available Gene Ontology (GO) terms but also of complex function. A complex function is constructed as Boolean combination of available GO terms. The complex functions inferred by ProfCom are more specific in comparison to single terms and describe more accurately the functional role of genes. Platform: Online tool

GOtcha provides a prediction of a set of GO terms that can be associated with a given query sequence. Each term is scored independently and the scores calibrated against reference searches to give an accurate percentage likelihood of correctness. These results can be displayed graphically. Why is GOtcha different to what is already out there and why should you be using it? * GOtcha uses a method where it combines information from many search hits, up to and including E-values that are normally discarded. This gives much better sensitivity than other methods. * GOtcha provides a score for each individual term, not just the leaf term or branch. This allows the discrimination between confident assignments that one would find at a more general level and the more specific terms that one would have lower confidence in. * The scores GOtcha provides are calibrated to give a real estimate of correctness. This is expressed as a percentage, giving a result that non-experts are comfortable in interpreting. * GOtcha provides graphical output that gives an overview of the confidence in, or potential alternatives for, particular GO term assignments. The tool is currently web-based; contact David Martin for details of the standalone version. Platform: Online tool

GOChase is a set of web-based utilities to detect and correct the errors in GO-based annotations. # GOChase-History resolves the whole modification history of GO IDs. # GOChase-Correct highlights merged GO IDs and redirects to the correct primary term into which the secondary ID was merged. For obsolete GO terms, the nearest non-discarded parent term is recommended by GOChase. This function may be used by GO browsers such as AmiGO and QuickGO to fix broken hyperlinks. # A whole database (such as LocusLink) as a flat file can be loaded into GOChase, reporting the annotation errors and GOChase corrections. # When one inputs a GO ID, GOChase will resolve all gene products annotated with the GO ID across all the major databases.
