http://search.cpan.org/~cmungall/go-perl/

go-perl is a set of Perl modules for parsing, manipulating and exporting ontologies and annotations. It includes parsers for the OBO and GO gene association file formats. It has a graph-based object model with methods for graph traversal. For more details, see the documentation included with the modules. go-perl comes bundled with XSL (Extensible Stylesheet Language) transforms (which can also be used independently of Perl, provided you have files in OBO-XML format), as well as scripts that can be used as standalone tools. Installation should be simple, provided you have some experience with Perl and CPAN; see the INSTALL file for details. Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

http://oboedit.org/

OBO-Edit is an open source, platform-independent application written in Java for viewing and editing any OBO format ontologies. OBO-Edit is a graph-based tool; its emphasis on the overall graph structure of an ontology provides a friendly interface for biologists, and makes OBO-Edit excellent for the rapid generation of large ontologies focusing on relationships between relatively simple classes. The UI components are cleanly separated from the data model and data adapters, so these can be reused in other applications. The oboedit foward-chaining reasoner can also be used independently (for example, for traversing ontology graphs). OBO-Edit uses the OBO format flat file. See the GO wiki, http://wiki.geneontology.org/index.php/OBO-Edit:_Getting_the_Source_Code, for instructions on downloading the source code. Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

http://datahub.io/dataset/kupkb

A collection of omics datasets (mRNA, proteins and miRNA) that have been extracted from PubMed and other related renal databases, all related to kidney physiology and pathology giving KUP biologists the means to ask queries across many resources in order to aggregate knowledge that is necessary for answering biological questions. Some microarray raw datasets have also been downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus and analyzed by the open-source software GeneArmada. The Semantic Web technologies, together with the background knowledge from the domain's ontologies, allows both rapid conversion and integration of this knowledge base. SPARQL endpoint http://sparql.kupkb.org/sparql The KUPKB Network Explorer will help you visualize the relationships among molecules stored in the KUPKB. A simple spreadsheet template is available for users to submit data to the KUPKB. It aims to capture a minimal amount of information about the experiment and the observations made.

http://www.bioperl.org

BioPerl is a community effort to produce Perl code which is useful in biology. This toolkit of perl modules is useful in building bioinformatics solutions in Perl. It is built in an object-oriented manner so that many modules depend on each other to achieve a task. The collection of modules in the bioperl-live repository consist of the core of the functionality of bioperl. Additionally auxiliary modules for creating graphical interfaces (bioperl-gui), persistent storage in RDMBS (bioperl-db), running and parsing the results from hundreds of bioinformatics applications (Run package), software to automate bioinformatic analyses (bioperl-pipeline) are all available as Git modules in our repository. The BioPerl toolkit provides a library of hundreds of routines for processing sequence, annotation, alignment, and sequence analysis reports. It often serves as a bridge between different computational biology applications assisting the user to construct analysis pipelines. This chapter illustrates how BioPerl facilitates tasks such as writing scripts summarizing information from BLAST reports or extracting key annotation details from a GenBank sequence record. BioPerl includes modules written by Sohel Merchant of the GO Consortium for parsing and manipulating OBO ontologies. Platform: Windows compatible, Mac OS X compatible, Linux compatible, Unix compatible

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

The typical result of a microarray experiment is a list of tens or hundreds of genes found to be differentially regulated in the condition under study. Independently of the methods used to select these genes, the common task faced by any researcher is to translate these lists of genes into a better understanding of the biological phenomena involved. Currently, this is done through a tedious combination of searches through the literature and a number of public databases. We developed Onto-Express (OE) as a novel tool able to automatically translate such lists of differentially regulated genes into functional profiles characterizing the impact of the condition studied. OE constructs functional profiles (using Gene Ontology terms) for the following categories: biochemical function, biological process, cellular role, cellular component, molecular function and chromosome location. Statistical significance values are calculated for each category. We demonstrated the validity and the utility of this comprehensive global analysis of gene function by analyzing two breast cancer data sets from two separate laboratories. OE was able to identify correctly all biological processes postulated by the original authors, as well as discover novel relevant mechanisms (Draghici et.al, Genomics, 81(2), 2003). Other results obtained with Onto-Express can be found in Khatri et.al., Genomics. 79(2), 2002. Custom level of abstraction of the Gene Ontology. User account required. Platform: Online tool

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on February 07, 2013. Web based ontological visualization tool for interactive visualization of any ontological hierarchy for a specific node of interest, up to the chosen level of children and/or ancestor. It takes any ontology file in OBO format as input and generates output as DAG hierarchical graph for the chosen query. To enhance the navigation capabilities of complex networks, we have embedded several features such as search criteria, zoom in/out, center focus, nearest neighbor highlights and mouse hover events. The application has been tested on all 72 data sets available in OBO format through OBO foundry. The results for few of them can be accessed through OntoVisT-Gallery.

http://app.aporc.org/NOA/

Network Ontology Analysis (NOA) (abbreviated to NOA) is a freely available collection of Gene Ontology tools aiming to analyze functions of gene network instead of gene list. Network rewiring facilitates the function changes between conditions even with the same gene list. Therefore, it is necessary to annotate the specific function of networks by considering the fundamental roles of interactions from the viewpoint of systems biology. NOA is such a novel functional enrichment analysis method capable to handle both dynamic and static networks. The application of NOA in biological networks shows that NOA can not only capture changing functions in rewiring networks but also find more relevant and specific functions in traditional static networks.

http://www.lasige.di.fc.ul.pt/webtools/proteinon/

ProteInOn calculates semantic similarity between GO terms or proteins annotated with GO terms. It also calculates term enrichment of protein sets, by applying a term representativity score, and gives additional information on protein interactions. The query compute protein semantic similarity returns the semantic similarity scores between all proteins entered, in matrix format. The option Measure allows users to choose one of several semantic similarity measures: Resnik, Lin, or Jiang & Conrath's measures with or without the DCA approach, plus the graph-based simUI and simGIC measures. These measures are listed by order of performance as evaluated with protein sequence similarity. The option GO type allows users to choose one of the aspects of GO: molecular function, biological process and cellular component. The option Ignore IEA limits the query to non-electronic annotations, excluding evidence types: IEA, NAS, ND, NR.
