MicroArray Explorer Description

Microarray Explorer (MAExplorer) is a Java-based data-mining facility for cDNA or oligonucleiotide microarray databases. Microarray Explorer (MAExplorer) is a Java-based data-mining facility for cDNA or oligonucleiotide microarray databases. Its exploratory data analysis environment provides tools for the data-mining of quantitative expression profiles across multiple microarrays.Microarray data may be viewed and directly manipulated in array pseudoimages, scatter plots, histograms, expression profile plots, cluster analyses (similar genes, K-means or K-median, hierarchical clustering, etc.), and reports. A key feature is the gene data filters for constraining a working set of genes to those passing a variety of user-specified tests and conditions. Reports may be generated with hypertext Web access to genomic databases such as UniGene, GenBank, dbEST, LocusLink, I.M.A.G.E., NCI/CIT mAdb microarray database and other Internet databases for sets of genes found to be of interest.A major focus of this tool is interactive data mining with access to other supporting Web genomic databases. The emphasis on direct manipulation of genes and sets of genes in graphics and tables provides a high level of interaction with the data making it easier for investigators to test ideas when looking for patterns. Here are some key features of "MicroArray Explorer": · Analyzes data (after arrays have been scanned and spots quantified) · Handles multiple cDNA or oligo array samples with replicate spots · Manages replicate samples, named condition sets of samples, and lists of condition sets · Manages named subsets of genes · Handles intensity or ratio (Cy3/Cy5) quantified array data · Analyzes data for 2-conditions and N-condition expression profiles including ANOVA on any number of conditions of replicate samples · Data-filters gene sets by statistics, clustering, gene set membership · Provides direct data manipulation in graphics, spreadsheets and sample management · Accesses genomic Web servers from plots and reports · Converts your data using Cvt2Mae data conversion wizard · Both MAExplorer and Cvt2Mae are written in Java for portability with download installers making it easy to run on any system · Users may update these programs, once installed, by downloading just the Java jar file(s) using update commands.
