| | 92 | GenMAPP-CS is a next-generation implementation of GenMAPP, a metabolic pathway visualization tool, as a set of plugins for Cytoscape. This week I worked on creating a way to map the ids of any network based on GenMAPP-supported data libraries ( e.g, KEGG, Affy, Ensembl ) to the ids of any expression data based on these libraries. The solution involves converting all ids to Ensembl IDs upon import, and calling a webservice on GenMAPP's services which are tied to their MySQL dbs. Kei Ono and I collaborated briefly in discussing the best place in the plugin code to place the responsibility for id conversion. |
