New viewer and analysis tool for HGVbaseG2P datasets

August 20th, 2008 | Posted by rcf8 in News | Uncategorized - (Comments Off on New viewer and analysis tool for HGVbaseG2P datasets)

The graphical display of association signals in HGVbaseG2P has been made more powerful and informative via a new approach to data visualisation that presents information in genome-wide and chromosomal contexts, as well as at higher resolution alongside gene maps. Data presentation parameters are customisable so that users can graphically explore datasets to locate biologically significant regions and markers.

DAS support enabled in HGVbaseG2P

August 20th, 2008 | Posted by rcf8 in News | Uncategorized - (Comments Off on DAS support enabled in HGVbaseG2P)

HGVbaseG2P now provides Distributed Annotation System (DAS) functionality so that datsets of interest can be remotely viewed in Ensembl or any other DAS compatible browser.

HGVbaseG2P content update
