About GenExpDB

Home Page

The University of Oklahoma Bioinformatics Core hosts the E. coli Gene Expression Database. EcoliGenExpDB was designed from the biologist’s perspective, with a tool box-style, integrated and interactive display interface and a simplified warehouse architecture, for analyzing a large and growing body of over 1200 multiplatform microarray experiments (currently 132 public) and 450 mouse intestinal colonization assays (curently 23 public) for the model organism Escherichia coli.

Content

Microarray Data

  • Membrane (Macro) Array data sets generated on Sigma-GenoSys Ecoli Panorama arrays
  • Microarray data generated on glass slides printed with Operon, Inc. E. coli ver. 1.0 oligonucleotide probe set
  • Affymetrix data generated on custom E. coli GeneChip designed by Conway Laboratory group
  • Affymetrix data generated on commercial E. coli GeneChip

Mouse intestinal colonization data

  • Generated by the Conway laboratory at OU and Paul Cohen's laboratory at the University of Rhode Island
