Rosetta Stone Transcript Mapper | Maps transcripts from many (not all) transcriptomes to and from each other. | Got a dd_v6 transcript but need it in SMED3##### format, or want SMED3#### in SMEST? Great this tool does that! | Researchers | Nowotarski et al., 2020 preprint | |
Gene Search | Search for transcripts by ID, experimentally determined tissue/pattern, homologs (best BLAST hits), GO terms, and PFAM protein domain terms. | Have a transcript and want to know homologs, GO Terms, tissue expression and protein domains? This tool does a lot! Take note the search is cumulative. | Researchers | ||
PLANA Anatomy Ontology | Formal vocabulary and relational network of Smed anatomical terms for organizing data and tool building | Want to know about anatomy terms used in Smed? Start learning here! Want to organize anatomical data for Smed by building your own tool? Great use PLANA! |
Researchers | PAGE Search by Location, PAGE Search by Transcript, PAGE Search by Publication,Molecular Fate Atlas, Gene Search, PlanGexQ | Nowotarski et al., 2021 |
PLANA Query | Search relationships and content of PLANA | Want to know all anatomical terms that are part of the head? This will do that. | Researchers | Nowotarski et al., 2021 | |
PAGE Search by Term | Search curated expression data from publications 2005-2019 by PLANA anatomy ontology location. Visit Tutorial. | Want to know all the transcripts noted as being expressed in the head by WISH? How about all the transcripts in the eye by FISH? Or transcripts in the neoblast category by single cell? This tool does that. | Researchers | Direct anatomical terms (no synonyms or relationships) are used in Gene Search location search. | Nowotarski et al., 2021 |
PAGE Search by Transcript | Search curated expression data relating transcripts to anatomical locations from publications between 2005 and 2019 by transcript | Want to know where your list of candidate transcripts have been marked as being expressed?
