The Bio-Array Resource for Plant Functional Genomics

Welcome to the Bio-Array Resource - the BAR! Below are user-friendly web-based tools for working with functional genomics and other data. Most are designed with the plant (mainly Arabidopsis) reseacher in mind, but a couple of them can be useful to the wider research community, e.g. Mouse eFP Browser or BlastDigester. Click on the icon to read the partner paper to a given tool. Mouse-over a given link for further information.

Arabidopsis Annotation from TAIR, called TAIR9_pep_20090619, which is merged with Gene Aliases from TAIR, called gene_aliases.20090313. [most recent versions as of 25 June 2009]
Arabidopsis GO Classification from TAIR, ATH_GO_GOSLIM.20090721.txt. [Updated July 23, 2009].
Affymetrix probe set identifier to AGI number lookup table from TAIR dated 29 July 2009. It was called affy_ATH1_array_elements-2009-7-29.txt. [most recent version as of 12 Nov 2009]
Predicted protein-protein interactions from Dr. Matt Geisler and colleagues at Southern Illinois University. Interactome 2.0 [most recent version as of 10 February 2009]
Documented and predicted subcellular localizations from Dr. A. Harvey Millar and colleagues at the University of Western Australia. SUBA2.0 [updated 10 February 2009]
Documented and predicted protein structures in ePlant are respectively from PDB and Dr. Lawrence Kelley at Imperial College, London, in the UK, computed using his Phyre algorithm [updated 19 November 2009]
