RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 CoGe LoadExp+: A web-based suite that integrates next-gen sequencing data analysis workflows and visualization JF bioRxiv FD Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory SP 118802 DO 10.1101/118802 A1 Jeffrey W. Grover A1 Matthew Bomhoff A1 Sean Davey A1 Brian D. Gregory A1 Rebecca A. Mosher A1 Eric Lyons YR 2017 UL http://biorxiv.org/content/early/2017/03/30/118802.abstract AB To make genomic and epigenomic analyses more widely available to the biological research community, we have created LoadExp+, a suite of bioinformatics workflows integrated with the web-based comparative genomics platform, CoGe. LoadExp+ allows users to perform transcriptomic (RNA-seq), epigenomic (bisulfite-seq), chromatin-binding (ChIP-seq), variant identification (SNPs), and population genetics analyses against any genome in CoGe, including genomes integrated by users themselves. Through LoadExp+’s integration with CoGe’s existing features, all analyses are available for visualization and additional downstream processing, and are available for export to CyVerse’s data management and analysis platforms. LoadExp+ provides easy-to-use functionality to manage genomics and epigenomics data throughout its entire lifecycle and facilitates greater accessibility of genomics analyses to researchers of all skill levels. LoadExp+ can be accessed at https://genomevolution.org.
