GeneSpring v5.0 by Silicon Genetics is now available to BimCore subscribers. GeneSpring is available for download to local machine. BimCore has licensed three (3) concurrent seats.

R / Bioconductor (v 1.8, R 2.3.0) is now available to BimCore subscribers. Bioconductor is open source and runs on PC and Linux. BimCore scripts include: quality control, verification of replicates, RMA normalization, ABI analysis and ANOVA and clustering.

Ingenuity Pathway Analysis by Iobian is available to BimCore Microarray subscribers via the web. We have licensed a single concurrent seat, so please use the calender. Ingenuity Pathways Analysis enables biologists and bioinformaticians to model, analyze and understand the complex biological systems at the core of all life science research. Ingenuity Pathways Analysis leverages the world largest and highest quality knowledge base of biological networks, powerful algorithms and an exceptionally easy-to-use software interface to provide researchers with the insights and confidence to make better and faster decisions at every step of their research.

The PANTHER (Protein ANalysis THrough Evolutionary Relationships) Classification System by Applied Biosystems is a unique resource that classifies genes by their functions, using published scientific experimental evidence and evolutionary relationships to predict function even in the absence of direct experimental evidence. Proteins are classified into families and subfamilies of shared function, which are then categorized by molecular function and biological process ontology terms. For an increasing number of proteins, detailed biochemical interactions in canonical pathways are captured and can be viewed interactively.

BimCore has licensed OnLine Protocol content from Wiley Publishing and it is now available to BimCore subscribers. This agreement provides limited access to various protocols. The terms of our agreement require users to login to a local page on the BimCore web site from which you can access the Wiley site.

Emory Protocols include: Bioinformatics, Cell Biology, Cytometry, Human Genetics, Immunology, Magentic Resonance Imaging, Neuroscience, Nucleic Acid Chemistry, Pharmacology, Protein Science, Toxicology, Molecular Biology, Microbiology

The Affymetrix Microarray Suite (GCOS v 1.2) is available to BimCore subscribers. An Affymetrix workstation is available upon request at G236 Biochemistry Connector. Please call Ali Pirani at 404-727-3501 to schedule access.

The CONFAC software finds the conserved Transcription Factor Binding Sites (TFBS) in the promoter regions of the genes of given Human genes and the corresponding Mouse homolog.

BimCore has listed local genechip array processing centers and cores, along with additional links to other genechip technologies.
