institute for computational biomedicine: TissueInfo Database Service

CRT home > TissueInfo Database Service

[ description ]

The TissueInfo web accessible database allows the user to search the tissue expression profiles of the Ensembl human transcript set and the Ensembl mouse transcript set databases to find any genes which match a given tissue profile. Genes are said to be specific to a given tissue if 95% of the ESTs that they match come from that tissue. A gene is said to be expressed in a tissue if at least one of the ESTs which it matches comes from that tissue.

This database offers information generated with TissueInfo for several sets of clones or genes.

The raw files used to create the webservice are available. Please read the README for more information.
