The MCGT has a variety of software available throughout the hub and node sites.
Below is a listing of the most popular software tools. Please contact Dan Liu
(WSU Sys Admin) for more information about accessing and using this software.

Gene Spring
The GeneSpring microarray analysis software comes from Silicon Genetics and is being
widely used across the Michigan Life Sciences Corridor.

OntoExpress
A colaboration between biologists and computer scientists allows us using strings of
accession or cluster identification numbers, Onto-Express searches the public databases
and returns tables that correlate expression profiles with the cytogenetic gene locations,
the biochemical and molecular functions, the biological processes, cellular components
and cellular roles of the translated proteins.

Ontology and Pathway Tools
These tools are part of the Microarray Application System at the University of Michigan.
It organizes DNA information from GenBank, Unigene and Locuslink. This system
also contains information about clones generated by the UM Psychiatry/MHRI
Laboratory.

Affy MicroArray Suite
The software automatically acquires and processes hybridization data. Analysis
algorithms allow review, comparing, graphing, filtering, and reporting in different modes.

Affy Data Mining Tool
Used to filter and sort data stored in an Affymetrix Analysis Data Model compatible database.

Base
BASE is a MIAME compliant, open source and web-based database server to manage
the massive amounts of data generated by microarray analysis.

ImaGene
ImaGene automates the time consuming process of measuring and visualizing gene expression
data from high-density array images.

Gene Pix Pro
GenePix is a leader in the acquisition and analysis of expression data from DNA microarrays,
protein microarrays, tissue arrays and cell arrays.
