GEGA (Gallus Enriched Gene Annotation): an online tool providing genomics and functional information across 47 tissues for a chicken gene-enriched atlas gathering Ensembl and Refseq genome annotations
Résumé
GEGA is a user-friendly tool designed to navigate through various genomic and functional information related to an enriched gene atlas in chicken that integrates the gene catalogues from the two reference databases, NCBI-RefSeq and EMBL-Ensembl/GENCODE, along with four additional rich resources such as FAANG and NONCODE. Using the latest GRCg7b genome assembly, GEGA encompasses a total of 78 323 genes, including 24 102 protein-coding genes (PCGs) and 44 428 long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), significantly increasing the number of genes provided by each resource independently. However, GEGA is more than just a gene database. It offers a range of features that allow us to go deeper into the functional aspects of these genes. Users can explore gene expression and co-expression profiles across 47 tissues from 36 datasets and 1400 samples, discover tissue-specific variations and their expression as a function of sex or age and extract orthologous genes or their genomic configuration relative to the closest gene. For the communities interested in a specific gene, a list of genes or a quantitative trait locus region in chicken, GEGA’s user-friendly interface facilitates efficient gene analysis, easy downloading of results and a multitude of graphical representations, from genomic information to detailed visualization of expression levels.
