Visualization of a dataset by GeneXplorer. a.) Overview of GeneXplorer display, explaining the various parts of the window. b.) In the zoom frame, the gene annotations table may contain an unlimited number of graphics and hyperlinks regarding the genes. These are configurable via a server-side stylesheet to accommodate different organism annotation. Clicking on these hyperlinks can take the user to e.g. SOURCE – on online collection of information about mammalian genes/clones. c.) SEARCH result display in zoom window. The search tool in the tool frame allows searching the annotations by any or all of the fields by using either words or wildcard searches. The result is displayed in the zoom window. d.) GeneXplorer's gene correlation display. The genes with expression patterns similar to the gene of interest are presented in an ordered list. The length of the orange bar to the right of the expression data indicates the magnitude of the correlation value.
