Short Description
Complex data mining and data processing tool using large-scale external open-access databases. The aim of the task is to port a data mining tool to the SEE-HPC infrastructure, which can help researchers to do comparative analysis and target candidate genes for further research of polygene type diseases. The implemented solution is capable to target candidate genes for various diseases such as asthma, diabetes, epilepsy, hypertension or schizophrenia using external online open-access eukaryotic (animal: mouse, rat, B. rerio, etc.) databases. The application does an in-silico mapping between the genes coming from the different model animals and search for unexplored potential target genes. With small modification the application is useful to target human genes too.
Problems Solved
The implemented solution is capable to target candidate genes for various diseases such as asthma, diabetes, epilepsy, hypertension or schizophrenia using external online open-access eukaryotic (animal: mouse, rat, B. rerio, etc.) databases. The application does an in-silico mapping between the genes coming from the different model animals and search for unexplored potential target genes. With small modification the application is useful to target human genes too. Grid's reliability parameters and response time (1-5 min) is not suitable for such service.
Scientific and Social Impact
Researchers in the region will be able to target candidate genes for further research of polygene type diseases. Create a data mining a service to the SEE-HPC infrastructure, which can help researchers to do comparative analysis.
Collaborations and Beneficiaries
People who are interested in using short fragment alignments will greatly benefit from the availability of this service. The service will be freely available to the LS community. We estimate that a number of 2-5 scientific groups (5-15 researchers) world wide will use our service. Ongoing collaborations so far: Hungarian Bioinformatics Association, Semmelweis University
