Abstract

The Stanford Microarray Database (SMD) stores raw and normalized data from microarray experiments, and provides web interfaces for researchers to retrieve, analyze and visualize their data. The two immediate goals for SMD are to serve as a storage site for microarray data from ongoing research at Stanford University, and to facilitate the public dissemination of that data once published, or released by the researcher. Of paramount importance is the connection of microarray data with the biological data that pertains to the DNA deposited on the microarray (genes, clones etc.). SMD makes use of many public resources to connect expression information to the relevant biology, including SGD [Ball,C.A., Dolinski,K., Dwight,S.S., Harris,M.A., Issel-Tarver,L., Kasarskis,A., Scafe,C.R., Sherlock,G., Binkley,G., Jin,H. et al. (2000) Nucleic Acids Res., 28, 77-80], YPD and WormPD [Costanzo,M.C., Hogan,J.D., Cusick,M.E., Davis,B.P., Fancher,A.M., Hodges,P.E., Kondu,P., Lengieza,C., Lew-Smith,J.E., Lingner,C. et al.

Figure 1
Zoomed spot image. A close-up of an individual spot, generated from the proxy GIF image, is shown, with all of the spot parameters, and the associated biological annotation.
Figure 2
Figure 2
Hierarchical cluster. A portion of a hierarchical cluster, which can be easily navigated, is shown. Red indicates up-regulation in the experimental sample, and green indicates down-regulation in the experimental sample, with respect to the control. The intensity of the color indicates the magnitude of up- or down-regulation (see 6).
