The information you need

Now with disease, pathway, drug, and model organisms together in one resource

 

Disease-biomarker associations: Find genes linked to disease states and quickly see which pathways, regulation networks, and drug interactions they're involved in.  Associations are organized so you can easily get a complete understanding of the known relationships between a protein and a disease. Find out at a glance:

  • Is the association correlative, causal or preventative in nature
  • Is the disease linked to mRNA overexpression, altered protein activity, or a DNA mutation
  • Is the relationship prognostic, does it reveal a potential drug target, or give hints to disease mechanism
  • Is the relationship supported by many studies, or is it an isolated finding

Drug-protein interactions: Identify pathways and networks that might be influenced by a certain drug, and better direct your drug development decisions.

  • 7,000 Drug-protein interactions from Drugbank
  • 1,200 Chemical regulators in yeast
  • 12,000 Detailed annotations on drug interactions in human, yeast and worm

Signaling, metabolic pathway, and expression regulation data:  Visualize pathways and regulation networks.

  • 190,000 signaling interactions
  • 2,700 regulators of fungal genes
  • 5,100 pathway assignments

Yeast and worm models - learn what model organism research reveals about your disease, pathogen, or pathway of interest. 

  • S. cerevisiae, S. pombe - for disease and aging models, fungal pathogen models, biofuels, and basic research
  • C. elegans - for disease and aging models, miRNA technology, nematode pathogen models, and basic research

Fungal pathogens - facilitate fungal pathogen drug discovery and infectious disease mechanism research with data for 18 human pathogen species in one resource.

  • C. albicans and other Candida species
  • Aspergillus species
  • Blastomyces species
  • Coccidioides immitis
  • Cryptoccocus neoformans
  • Histoplasma capsulatum
  • Pneumocystis species

Plant  Science - Our plant resource contains a valuable combination of public source data and expert manual curation so you can save time getting a complete picture on your gene or pathway of interest in one place:

  • Arabidopsis, soybean, maize, sorghum, and rice
  • Phenotype and expression details not found in other sources
  • Cell signaling and metabolic pathway data
  • Expression data with  BAR visualization
  • Sequence-based GO and domain assignments for uncharacterized proteins

Find meaning in experimental gene sets

Gene set analysis – our gene set analysis tool enables you to upload a microarray dataset, or take a set of genes from an internal search, and see the functional assignments that are associated with these proteins.  In addition you can perform statistical analysis to identify diseases, pathways, or processes that are overrepresented in your gene set.

  • Learn if your microarray dataset contains a high proportion of genes involved in apoptosis, associated with obesity, or expressed in tumors.

Ontology Search - our ontology search tool gives you searchable access to our extensive, manually-curated, functional assignment data, so you can identify highly defined protein sets that are relevant to your research. 

  •  Find proteins that share a disease association, an expression location, are involved in the same pathway, or a combination of all of these, without doing extensive literature searches.

Pathfinder - our pathway visualization tool allows you to load whole pathways or build up from a single molecule, and lets you overlay drug and disease information onto the pathway you’ve developed.

  • Load a gene set onto the Pathfinder and see which genes are connected by known interactions or pathways.
