LinkinPath: from sequence to interconnected pathway.

摘要

LinkinPath is a pathway mapping and analysis tool that enables users to explore and visualize the list of gene/protein sequences through various Flash-driven interactive web interfaces including KEGG pathway maps, functional composition maps (TreeMaps), molecular interaction/reaction networks and pathway-to-pathway networks. Users can submit single or multiple datasets of gene/protein sequences to LinkinPath to (i) determine the co-occurrence and co-absence of genes/proteins on animated KEGG pathway maps; (ii) compare functional compositions within and among the datasets using TreeMaps; (iii) analyze the statistically enriched pathways across the datasets; (iv) build the pathway-to-pathway networks for each dataset; (v) explore potential interaction/reaction paths between pathways; and (vi) identify common pathway-to-pathway networks across the datasets. AVAILABILITY: LinkinPath is freely available to all interested users at http://www.biotec.or.th/isl/linkinpath/.
