GO Tools: Protein Interaction

g:Profiler is a public web server for characterising and manipulating gene lists from high-throughput genomic data. g:Profiler has a simple user-friendly web interface with powerful visualisation. g:Profiler currently supports 85 species, including mammals, fungi, plants, insects, etc, from the Ensembl and Ensembl Genomes databases. g:Profiler consists of the following tools:

• g:GOSt retrieves most significant Gene Ontology (GO) terms, KEGG and REACTOME pathways, and TRANSFAC motifs to a user-specified group of genes, proteins or microarray probes. g:GOSt also allows analysis of ranked or ordered lists of genes, visual browsing of GO graph structure, interactive visualisation of retrieved results, and many other features. Multiple testing corrections are applied to extract only statistically important results.
• g:Convert allows conversion between gene or protein names, database IDs and microarray probes of more than 100 types. A mix of various IDs may be presented as input; output options include HTML, text and XLS spreadsheet.
• g:Orth retrieves orthologs for a given set of genes, proteins or probes in a selected organism. Graphical representation also shows orthologs present in all g:Profiler organisms.
• g:Sorter searches for similar expression profiles to a given gene, protein or probe in a large set of public microarray datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.
• g:Cocoa provides a compact interface for comparing enrichments of multiple gene lists.

GraphWeb allows the detection of modules from biological, heterogeneous and multi-species networks, and the interpretation of detected modules using Gene Ontology, cis-regulatory motifs and biological pathways.

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.

ToppGene Suite is a one-stop portal for (i) gene list functional enrichment, (ii) candidate gene prioritization using either functional annotations or network analysis and (iii) identification and prioritization of novel disease candidate genes in the interactome. Functional annotation-based disease candidate gene prioritization uses a fuzzy-based similarity measure to compute the similarity between any two genes based on semantic annotations. The similarity scores from individual features are combined into an overall score using statistical meta-analysis. A P-value of each annotation of a test gene is derived by random sampling of the whole genome.
