FatiGO: a web tool for finding significant associations of Gene Ontology terms with groups of genes

Received on August 15, 2003 ; revised on September 30, 2003 ; accepted on October 1, 2003
Advance Access Publication January 22, 2004

Summary: We present a simple but powerful procedure to extract Gene Ontology (GO) terms that are significantly over- or under-represented in sets of genes within the context of a genome-scale experiment (DNA microarray, proteomics, etc.). Said procedure has been implemented as a web application, FatiGO, allowing for easy and interactive querying. FatiGO, which takes the multiple-testing nature of statistical contrast into account, currently includes GO associations for diverse organisms (human, mouse, fly, worm and yeast) and the TrEMBL/Swissprot GOAnnotations@EBI correspondences from the European Bioinformatics Institute.
