Short Description
Share your knowledge and ideas. How you can help. See Help pages if you need help with using the wiki
Galaxy is an open source workflow management system that can be used to access and analyze genomic data sets without any prior knowledge of programming.[1][2]
Galaxy allows users to operate on tabular data, using a variety of preinstalled tools.
Links
The Galaxy project and public instance are located at Penn State University.
Requirements
Galaxy is a web application. For most users, all you need is a browser.
If you want to set up your own Galaxy instance, it is supported on Linux and Mac OS/X. Windows is not currently supported. Python is required. See Get Galaxy at the Galaxy Wiki.
User notes
Getting started with Galaxy
These notes are for the main Galaxy instance, and are written from an E. coli-centric point of view.
The first thing you will usually want to do is get some data set into your Galaxy workflow. Select Get Data from the tool menu. Galaxy gives you a variety of choices. You can upload your own file or load preloaded data. Galaxy's upload system can recognize Axt, Fasta, Fastqsolexa, Gff, Gff3, Html, Lav, Maf, Tabular, Wiggle, Bed and Interval (Bed with headers) formats. As of October 2010, Galaxy has preloaded data for several E. coli genomes. However, it may be better to upload gff3 files so you can use the latest RefSeq record.
