GENECODIS: a web-based tool for finding significant concurrent annotations in gene lists

Genome Biol. 2007;8(1):R3. doi: 10.1186/gb-2007-8-1-r3.

Abstract

We present GENECODIS, a web-based tool that integrates different sources of information to search for annotations that frequently co-occur in a set of genes and rank them by statistical significance. The analysis of concurrent annotations provides significant information for the biologic interpretation of high-throughput experiments and may outperform the results of standard methods for the functional analysis of gene lists. GENECODIS is publicly available at http://genecodis.dacya.ucm.es/.
