Abstract:
CaveCrawler is a reactive web interface for bioinformatic analysis of data in the Mexican tetra (Astyanax mexicanus), an emerging evolutionary model organism. CaveCrawler consists of 4 modules: a Gene Search page for querying data about specific genes, a Transcription page for finding genes whose transcriptional levels differ between samples, a Population Genetics page for investigating statistics on diversity and selection, and a GO Term Info page for identifying and obtaining information on GO terms-of-interest. Finally, there is the Data Sources module, which describes the publications from which each dataset was obtained, as well as the dates for Ensembl and UniProt-derived information. To request that new data be integrated into CaveCrawler, please email Heath Blackmon at hblackmon@bio.tamu.edu or Alex Keene at akeene@bio.tamu.edu
