Annotation Dependencies

Annotation data required by certain components

geWorkbench currently can only read in annotation files based on the Affymetrix annotation file format. Following is a list of the column headers for data types required by various geWorkbench components.

  • All components require "Probe Set ID".
Component Columns required
CNKB Entrez Gene
Gene Ontology Gene Ontology Biological Process, Gene Ontology Cellular Component, Gene Ontology Molecular Function
Marker Annotations
Sequence Retrieval (EBI)
Sequence Retrieval (Santa Cruz)
