MAPPFinder: using Gene Ontology and GenMAPP to create a global gene-expression profile from microarray data

Genome Biol. 2003;4(1):R7. doi: 10.1186/gb-2003-4-1-r7. Epub 2003 Jan 6.

Abstract

MAPPFinder is a tool that creates a global gene-expression profile across all areas of biology by integrating the annotations of the Gene Ontology (GO) Project with the free software package GenMAPP http://www.GenMAPP.org. The results are displayed in a searchable browser, allowing the user to rapidly identify GO terms with over-represented numbers of gene-expression changes. Clicking on GO terms generates GenMAPP graphical files where gene relationships can be explored, annotated, and files can be freely exchanged.
