ArrayExpress update--an archive of microarray and high-throughput sequencing-based functional genomics experiments

TLDR

ArrayExpress is one of three international public repositories of functional genomics data, hosting sequencing and array‑based experiments and integrated with the Gene Expression Atlas and EBI sequence databases. Data are submitted by users and imported from GEO, and the archive offers ontology‑enabled advanced queries by technology and sample attributes such as disease, cell type, and anatomy.

Abstract

The ArrayExpress Archive ( http://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress ) is one of the three international public repositories of functional genomics data supporting publications. It includes data generated by sequencing or array-based technologies. Data are submitted by users and imported directly from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus. The ArrayExpress Archive is closely integrated with the Gene Expression Atlas and the sequence databases at the European Bioinformatics Institute. Advanced queries provided via ontology enabled interfaces include queries based on technology and sample attributes such as disease, cell types and anatomy.
