Abstract
Techniques for facilitating the identification of candidate genes from a plurality of DNA sequences. According to an embodiment of the present invention, techniques are provided for extracting and integrating information from various information sources and results of various analyses, and storing the integrated information in a form which is conducive to identification of candidate genes. The stored information may include results of a homology search for the plurality of DNA sequences, annotative information for the plurality of DNA sequences indicating the biochemical functions and physiological roles of the plurality of DNA sequences, gene expression profile data for the plurality of DNA sequences describing behavioral patterns of the plurality of DNA sequences, results from clustering the plurality of DNA sequences based on time course data as described by the gene expression profile data, and other information.
