ChIP Enrichment Analysis can speed up drug discovery

developers at Mount Sinai develop a New database and software, called ChEA which can speed up drug discovery at Mount Sinai develop a New database and software, called ChEA which can speed up drug discovery

The ChEA software and ChIP-X database is freely available online at:http://amp.pharm.mssm.edu/lib/chea.jsp.

until ChEA was developed, no centralized database integrated results from, for instance, ChIP-seq and ChIP-chip experiments (these are used to identify how “transcription factor” proteins might regulate all genes in humans and mice). Now this new computational method should help streamline how scientists analyze these gene expression experiments
