Help Gene Expression Heatmap
The heatmap shows expression values in TPM of more than one gene for determined RNA-Seq experiment. To visualize the expression values follow the following steps:
Filters Form
Select one organism from the list. The organisms in this list are those that have gene expression information associated. When an organism is selected, the list of studies and the list of genes are reloaded.
Select one study from the list. The list of studies is reloaded with the RNA-Seq studies of the previously selected organism.
This text box can be used to search for a particular gene by its name or a hit of the name. The list of genes is refreshed with the genes whose names match the text entered.
This container allocates the list of genes filtered by the previous described components. Choose the genes to retrieve the gene expression values. When you click on a gene, its name will automatically appear on the text area of the section (E) that registers selected features.
This text box receive the name of the selected genes.
Click on this button to show the heatmap of the expression values of the selected genes.
This button allows to load heatmap with pre-defined genes.
Expression Chart
In case there more than one genome assembly for one species this can be selected in this menu..
The expression values in the heatmap can be sorted according to the selected property. These properties come from the meta data of the RNA-Seq samples.
This is the heatmap of the gene expression analysis where each row accounts for a gene and each column represents one sample. Values are sorted according to the selected property as described in (B). Expression values are normalized in TPM.
Further information for each sample can be displayed by moving the mouse over any square of the heatmap.
A file with the expression values for the selected genes can be downloaded by click on this link.
