Dintor
Dintor provides functional annotation and integration of genomic and proteomic datasets to support analyses of gene function, orthology, genetic variant effects, and protein annotations.
Key Features:
- Extensive toolset: A collection of over 30 specialized tools that can be used individually or combined into complex data processing pipelines.
- Functional annotation capabilities: Gene identifier conversions, orthology mappings, functional annotation of proteins and genetic variants, candidate gene prioritization, and Gene Ontology-based gene set enrichment analysis.
- Data versioning and reproducibility: Management of multiple archived dataset versions with links between tools and specific dataset versions to ensure reproducible analyses.
- Modular integration: Modular tools enable integration of heterogeneous genomic and proteomic datasets into customized analytical workflows.
Scientific Applications:
- Gene function annotation: Functional characterization of genes and proteins through integrated annotations and Gene Ontology enrichment.
- Variant impact and prioritization: Annotation and prioritization of genetic variants for downstream analysis and candidate gene selection.
- Protein annotation and proteomics integration: Functional annotation of proteins and integration with proteomic datasets.
- Comparative genomics and orthology studies: Orthology mapping to support comparative analyses across species.
- Integrative analyses of large-scale experiments: Integration and reproducible analysis of heterogeneous datasets from large-scale sequencing and proteomics studies.
Methodology:
Modular combination of >30 tools into pipelines performing gene identifier conversion, orthology mapping, functional annotation of proteins and genetic variants, candidate gene prioritization, Gene Ontology-based gene set enrichment analysis, integration of heterogeneous genomic and proteomic datasets, and management of archived dataset versions linked to specific tool runs.
