ToppGene Suite

A one-stop portal for gene list enrichment analysis and candidate gene prioritization
based on functional annotations and protein interactions network

ToppGene Suite would not be possible without the efforts and contributions to the scientific community of the following institutions.

Gene Ontology

The Gene Ontology project provides a controlled vocabulary to describe gene and gene product attributes in any organism.

Website
 

Human Phenotype Ontology

Human Phenotype Ontology is a controlled vocabulary of terms - an ontology - for 8,000 abnormalities commonly associated with human monogenic diseases, and manually annotated entries in the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man database with these terms, providing a community resource for cross-disease phenotypic comparisons.

Mammalian Phenotype

MGI-Mouse Genome Informatics. Mouse Informatics from Jackson Laboratories.

Website
 

GeneSigDB

GeneSigDB is a searchable database of fully traceable, standardized, annotated gene signatures which have been manually curated from publications that are indexed in PubMed.

Website
 

miRTarBase

miRTarBase has accumulated more than three thousand miRNA-target interactions (MTIs), which are collected by manually surveying pertinent literature after data mining of the text systematically to filter research articles related to functional studies of miRNAs. Generally, the collected MTIs are validated experimentally by reporter assay, western blot, or microarray experiments with overexpression or knockdown of miRNAs. miRTarBase currently curates 4,270 experimentally verified MTIs between 669 miRNAs and 2,533 target genes among 14 species. While containing the largest amount of validated MTIs, the miRTarBase provides the most updated collection by comparing with other similar, previously developed databases.

PITA

A PITA site denotes a single microRNA binding site prediction on a given UTR (and has a ΔΔG value). There can be (and in many cases are) many sites for the same microRNA along a given UTR. The target score represents the overall effect of all those sites combined together on the given UTR. If a microRNA has a single site on the UTR then the target score is equal to that site's ΔΔG. However, if more than one site exists for a given microRNA on a given UTR then the target score appropriately sums up the ΔΔG energies of all those sites.

microRNA.org - Targets and Expression

The microRNA.org website is a comprehensive resource of microRNA target predictions and expression profiles. Target predictions are based on a development of the miRanda algorithm which incorporates current biological knowledge on target rules and on the use of an up-to-date compendium of mammalian microRNAs. The target sites predicted by miRanda are scored for likelihood of mRNA downregulation using mirSVR, a regression model that is trained on sequence and contextual features of the predicted miRNA::mRNA duplex. Expression profiles are derived from a comprehensive sequencing project of a large set of mammalian tissues and cell lines of normal and disease origin.

GWAS Central

GWAS Central (previously the Human Genome Variation database of Genotype-to-Phenotype information) is a database of summary level findings from genetic association studies, both large and small. We actively gather datasets from public domain projects, and encourage direct data submission from the community.

Small Molecule Pathway Database

SMPDB (The Small Molecule Pathway Database) is an interactive, visual database containing more than 350 small molecule pathways found in humans. More than 2/3 of these pathways (>280) are not found in any other pathway database.

Website
 

Panther Pathways

The PANTHER (Protein ANalysis THrough Evolutionary Relationships) Classification System is a unique resource that classifies genes by their functions, using published scientific experimental evidence and evolutionary relationships to predict function even in the absence of direct experimental evidence. Proteins are classified by expert biologists into families and subfamilies of shared function, which are then categorized by molecular function and biological process ontology terms.
