Summary: We developed an interactive GO (gene ontology) browser named GOTreePlus that superimposes annotation information over GO structures. GOTreePlus It can facilitate the identification of important GO terms through interactive visualization of them in the GO structure. The interactive pie chart summarizing an annotation distribution for a selected GO term provides users with a succinct context-sensitive overview of their experimental results. We tested our GOTreePlus tool using a proteome profiling dataset obtained on differentiation of retinal pigment epithelial cells where 399 proteins were quantified.
