ArrayTrack Microarray database and analysis software

NCTR Center for Toxicoinformatics - ArrayTrack Microarray database and analysis software: "ArrayTrack provides an integrated solution for managing, analyzing, and interpreting microarray gene expression data. Specifically, ArrayTrack is MIAME (Minimum Information About A Microarray Experiment) supportive for storing both microarray data and experiment parameters associated with a pharmaco- or toxico- genomics study. Many statistical and visualization tools are available with ArrayTrack. ArrayTrack also provides a rich collection of functional information about genes, proteins and pathways for biological interpretation. The primary emphasis of ArrayTrack is the direct linking of analysis results with functional information for facilitating the interaction between the choice of analysis methods and the biological relevance of analysis results. Using ArrayTrack, user can easily select a statistical method applied to a stored microarray data to determine a list of differentially expressed genes and the gene list can be directly linked to pathways and gene ontology for functional analysis."
