Sigma-Aldrich and Ingenuity Systems have launched Your Favorite Gene powered by Ingenuity, a web-based biological search portal for exploring dynamic gene-based content.
Based on Ingenuity's extensive library of research findings, Your Favorite Gene powered by Ingenuity positions Sigma-Aldrich's life science products within a content-rich environment of relevant biological and chemical information.
The portal is built upon Sigma-Aldrich's Your Favorite Gene search engine, and incorporates Ingenuity's Knowledge Base, a repository of biological and chemical networks.
Researchers and students can search by gene, protein, function, disease, species, tissue or pathway to access a range of previous research findings and biological information, including molecular functions, cell regulation, protein domains, and metabolic and signalling pathways.
From an initial search, simple navigation allows exploration of broader networks, providing insight into pathway interactions.
Researchers can also model prospective experiments, accessing the findings of previous studies and quickly sourcing Sigma-Aldrich products relevant to their work.
Your Favorite Gene powered by Ingenuity will present select information from Ingenuity's library, with quick links to the larger repository for Ingenuity subscribers.
It provides streamlined access to Sigma-Aldrich's extensive portfolio of validated shRNAs, siRNAs, Prestige antibodies and bioactive small molecule products.
The web portal is free for all researchers and students.
