Dear Monks,
A bioinformatics question: I have been doing more and more Gene Ontology (GO) work, specifically, I am looking for enriched terms in my various gene sets. I usually go through the web-based programs like DAVID or Babelomics. However, I now need a high-throughput approach, but was disappointed to only find GO::TermFinder on CPAN. There are plenty of GO handlers/parsers available, but far fewer analytical tools, so I wondered if anyone had any experience of doing GO term enrichment on many many groups of genes?
- Any particular API I should use?
- Any particular problems I should look out for?
- Is there another web-based program I should think about?
- Is there a downloadable program that might be a good alternate? (i.e. a commandline based one that I can use via perl)
Any help or advice much appreciated! NB: I have cross-posted a similar question on seqAnswers in an attempt to keep this one BioPerl/perl related...
Just a something something...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
