GATHER: a systems approach to interpreting genomic signatures

摘要

Motivation: Understanding the full meaning of the biology captured in molecular profiles, within the context of the entire biological system, cannot be achieved with a simple examination of the individual genes in the signature. To facilitate such an understanding, we have developed GATHER, a tool that integrates various forms of available data to elucidate biological context within molecular signatures produced from high-throughput post-genomic assays.
