The Genomics Unified Schema (GUS) is an extensive relational database schema and associated application framework designed to store, integrate, analyze and present functional genomics data. The GUS schema supports a wide range of data types including genomics, gene expression, transcript assemblies, proteomics and others. It emphasizes standards-based ontologies and strong-typing.
The GUS Application Framework offers an object-relational layer and a Plugin API used to rapidly create robust data loading programs for diverse data sources. The GUS distribution includes plugins for standard data sources. The GUS Web Development Kit (WDK) is a rich environment for efficiently designing sophisticated query-based websites with little programming required.
"GusSchema 3.5.1, a patch release is now available from the subversion repository for use with the latest install and GusAppFramework packages. Upgrade scripts and instructions are included. Also, a stand-alone SchemaBrowser written by Conrad Ibanez and collaborators at the University of Georgia is now available for download."
