Module

Datasource(s)

Usage

Genome

Ensembl [2], UniProt [35]

Search for genes, transcripts and proteins and add them to sets. Features are visualized.

Protein Interaction

STRING [8]

Analyze protein interactions within a set. Identify interacting proteins and add them to sets.

Pathway

KEGG [7]

Analyze genes in sets in a metabolic and pathways context. Add further genes of a pathway to sets.

GO enrichment

GeneOntology [4]

Functional characterization of sets. Extend sets based on function.

microRNA

TarBase [38]

Reveal microRNA based regulation of genes in sets. Search for genes regulated by specific microRNAs.

Disease

OMIM [5]

Identify mendelian disease genes in sets. Search for genes associated with a mendelian disease.

Drug

DrugBank [6]

Identify drug targets in sets. Search for genes affected by a drug.

Orthology

Ensembl [2]

Orthology based translation of sets to other species.
