It provides the information content (IC) of GO terms, semantic similarity between GO terms and GO-based protein functional similarity scores. The specificity of GO terms and the similarity of biological content between GO terms or proteins are transformed into numeric values for protein analyses at the functional level. The integration of the different measures enables users to choose the measure best suited to their application and to compare results between different semantic similarity measures.

CLASSIFI - Cluster Assignment for Biological Inference Resource Report Resource Website |
CLASSIFI - Cluster Assignment for Biological Inference (RRID:SCR_005752) | CLASSIFI | production service resource, service resource, data analysis service, analysis service resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE, documented on July 10, 2012. Cluster Assignment for Biological Inference (CLASSIFI) is a data-mining tool that can be used to identify significant co-clustering of genes with similar functional properties (e.g. cellular response to DNA damage). Briefly, CLASSIFI uses the Gene Ontology gene annotation scheme to define the functional properties of all genes/probes in a microarray data set, and then applies a cumulative hypergeometric distribution analysis to determine if any statistically significant gene ontology co-clustering has occurred.

FunSpec Resource Report Resource Website 50+ mentions |
FunSpec (RRID:SCR_006952) | FunSpec | production service resource, service resource, data analysis service, analysis service resource | FunSpec is a web-based tool for statistical evaluation of groups of genes and proteins (e.g. co-regulated genes, protein complexes, genetic interactors) with respect to existing annotations, including GO terms. FunSpec (an acronym for Functional Specification) inputs a list of yeast gene names, and outputs a summary of functional classes, cellular localizations, protein complexes, etc. that are enriched in the list. The classes and categories evaluated were downloaded from the MIPS Database and the GO Database . In addition, many published datasets have been compiled to evaluate enrichment against. Hypertext links to the publications are given. The p-values, calculated using the hypergeometric distribution, represent the probability that the intersection of given list with any given functional category occurs by chance. The Bonferroni-correction divides the p-value threshold, that would be deemed significant for an individual test, by the number of tests conducted and thus accounts for spurious significance due to multiple testing over the categories of a database. After the Bonferroni correction, only those categories are displayed for which the chance probability of enrichment is lower than: p-value/#CD where #CD is the number of categories in the selected database. Without the Bonferroni Correction, all categories are displayed for which the same probability of enrichment is lower than: p-value threshold in an individual test Note that many genes are contained in many categories, especially in the MIPS database (which are hierarchical) and that this can create biases for which FunSpec currently makes no compensation. Also the databases are treated as independent from one another, which is really not the case, and each is searched seperately, which may not be optimal for statistical calculations. Nonetheless, we find it useful for sifting through the results of clustering analysis, TAP pulldowns, etc. Platform: Online tool | gene, protein, annotation, gene ontology, gene expression, clustering, prediction, statistical analysis, functional class, cellular localization, protein complex, yeast, FASEB list |

Short Time-series Expression Miner (STEM) (RRID:SCR_005016) | STEM | data processing software, software application, software resource | The Short Time-series Expression Miner (STEM) is a Java program for clustering, comparing, and visualizing short time series gene expression data from microarray experiments (~8 time points or fewer). STEM allows researchers to identify significant temporal expression profiles and the genes associated with these profiles and to compare the behavior of these genes across multiple conditions. STEM is fully integrated with the Gene Ontology (GO) database supporting GO category gene enrichment analyses for sets of genes having the same temporal expression pattern. STEM also supports the ability to easily determine and visualize the behavior of genes belonging to a given GO category or user defined gene set, identifying which temporal expression profiles were enriched for these genes. (Note: While STEM is designed primarily to analyze data from short time course experiments it can be used to analyze data from any small set of experiments which can naturally be ordered sequentially including dose response experiments.)
