Abstract
The increasing incorporation of omics technology into clinical and translational medicine presents challenges to end users of the large and complex datasets that are generated by these methods. A particular challenge in genomics is that the nomenclature for genes is not uniform between large genomic databases or between commonly used genetic analysis tools. Furthermore, outdated genomic nomenclature can still be found amongst scientific communications including peer-reviewed manuscripts. Therefore, a web application (GeneToList) was developed to assist is gene ID conversion and alias matching, with a specific focus on achieving a user-friendly interface for the non-bioinformatics-savvy scientist.
Availability and implementation GeneToList is available at https://www.genetolist.com/. The tool is a web application that is compatible with many standard browsers.
