GoMiner is a tool for biological interpretation of 'omic' data –
including data from gene expression microarrays. Omic
experiments often generate lists of dozens or hundreds of genes that differ in expression between
samples, raising the question, “What the h-ll does it all mean
biologically?”
To answer that question, GoMiner leverages the Gene Ontology (GO) to classify the genes into biologically coherent categories
and assess those categories statistically.
For biological interpretation of a microarray experiment, the user enters the list of genes on the
array and has the option of flagging them as up-regulated, down-regulated, or neither with
respect to some index standard.
This animation presents a tour of the highlights of GoMiner’s
functionality and user interface.
