Paul Fisher's Workflows

Pathways and Gene annotations for QTL region (7)

• Download

This workflow searches for genes which reside in a QTL (Quantitative Trait Loci) region in the mouse, Mus musculus. The workflow requires an input of: a chromosome name or number; a QTL start base pair position; QTL end base pair position. Data is then extracted from BioMart to annotate each of the genes found in this region. The Entrez and UniProt identifiers are then sent to KEGG to obtain KEGG gene identifiers. The KEGG gene identifiers are then used to searcg for pathways in the KEGG path...

HUMAN Microarray CEL file to candidate pat... (4)

• Download

This workflow takes in a CEL file and a normalisation method then returns a series of images/graphs which represent the same output obtained using the MADAT software package (MicroArray Data Analysis Tool) [http://www.bioinf.manchester.ac.uk/MADAT/index.html]. Also returned by this workflow are a list of the top differentialy expressed genes (size dependant on the number specified as input - geneNumber), which are then used to find the candidate pathways which may be influencing the observed ...

Entrez Gene to KEGG Pathway (5)

• Download

This workflow takes in Entrez gene ids then adds the string "ncbi-geneid:" to the start of each gene id. These gene ids are then cross-referenced to KEGG gene ids. Each KEGG gene id is then sent to the KEGG pathway database and its relevant pathways returned.

Add Mesh String to Biological Process (2)

• Download

This workflow is designed to add the following MeSH term to the end of a KEGG pathway name: AND "Metabolic Networks and Pathways" [MeSH Terms]   Example input for this service is as follows:   VEGF signaling pathway Hematopoietic cell lineage GnRH signaling pathway Type II diabetes mellitus

Simplify a BLAST text file (2)

• Download

This workflow simplifies a BLAST text file into identifiers, descriptions and values (P, E-values). In order to extract the relevant ids etc. you need to pass the relevant string into the corresponding port, e.g. the default port being used is gi. This has been passed "gi". For any other ports simply pass in the string the SAME as the port name, e.g. seq_id, p, per etc.

KEGG pathways common to both QTL and micro... (3)

• Download

This workflow takes in two lists of KEGG pathway ids. These are designed to come from pathways found from genes in a QTL (Quantitative Trait Loci) region, and from pathways found from genes differentially expressed in a microarray study. By identifying the intersecting pathways from both studies, a more informative picture is obtained of the candidate processes involved in the expression of a phenotype.   Example input for this workflow is given below (as newline separated values). qt...

Mouse Microarray Analysis (3)

• Download

This workflow takes in probesets from and AffyMetrix micorarray experiment and returns: the genes ; gene start and end positions; chromosome where genes reside; ensembl trasncripts; SwissProt ids; affy probeset identifiers for chips Mouse430_2 and Mouse430a_2. Example ids from the Mouse430_2 affymetrix array are as follows (newline separated): 1447227_at 1440624_at 1436240_at 1454904_at 1435665_at 1418148_at 1429831_at

Perform a search through NCBI eUtils eSearch (3)

• Download

This workflow takes in a search term and a database (e.g. snp, gene, protein) in which to perfom the search over. The result is an xml file containing summary information about the search term. Example input for this workflow are given below: database: pubmed terms: cancer AND diabetes
