GPDE / News: Recent posts

Today the first version of the GPDE 1.1 was released and is now available for download. All users are advised to upgrade their installation.
Information on how to update the GPDE from the last BETA release will be available in the forum (http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/gpde/).

This is the last beta version of the 1.1 trunk. It now includes all features that are planned for version 1.1. For people using version 1.1 an update was provided.

Since the IPI database will be closed at the end of this year the internal accession system was changed back to UniProt accessions. This came with a big advantage: When new proteins are inserted into the GPDE all available accession mappings in UniProt for this accessions are inserted as well. Thereby, the GPDE now supports over 60 different accession systems without the need to contact any outside service.

The new function "Data Comparison" was added to the GPDE and is currently being tested. It allows you to compare two pools of proteins with each other. For pool A you have the possibility to upload a file (PRIDE or text file), to enter the protein accessions directly or to select several existing cells from the database. For pool B you can only select cells from the database. The result is presented as a list of proteins indicating whether the protein as only found in pool A, pool B or in both pools.
Using this tool it is very easy to get a first impression of which proteins might be possible bio-marker candidates. View the screenshots for more information.
