Basic eSearch/eFetch cycle (1)

• Download

This is a basic eSearch/eFetch workflow created with taverna and using eUtils from NCBI. It accepts a query term as input (at the moment, for testing purposes, this is a fixed string), interrogate eSearch to retrieve the list of related sequences on the Nucleotide database, and use eFetch to retrieve the corresponding sequences. I wrote this workflow one year ago, when I was trying to understand how taverna and eUtils work; I suspect it broken, and of course it could be enhanced, so I am ...

Pathway and Gene to Pubmed (2)

• Download

This workflow takes in a list of gene names and KEGG pathway descriptions, and searches the PubMed database for corresponding articles. Any matches to the genes are then retrieved (abstracts only). These abstracts are then used to calculate a cosine vector space between two sets of corpora (gene and phenotype, or pathway and phenotype). The workflow counts the number of articles in the pubmed database in which each term occurs, and identifies the total number of articles in the entire PubMe...
