MILANO - Microarray Literature-based Annotation

This program performs automatic searches in PubMed or the GeneRIF collection for articles containing co-occurrences of search terms with a list of genes (e.g. from a microarray experiment).
The program is used by pasting the list of Gene ID's or symbols in the Primary Search Term field, and the list of cross-reference search terms in the Secondary Search Term field. The output is a table containing the number of hits for each pair of search terms.
Sample input is provided in the fields, so you can just click submit and see what happens. If you want to run data of your own, delete the sample input first.

Primary search terms (paste each in a separate row):

LocusLink/Entrez Gene
   or RefSeq mRNA (NM_) ID's

 Free text (will not be translated)
 

Secondary Search Terms (paste each in a separate row):


Search Databases:

GeneRIF Collection

Note on using PubMed: To prevent overloading NCBI's systems, we perform the searches to PubMed offline and according to NCBI's limitations - between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. EST. This means that an answer could take up to 24 hours to arrive .
Please read NCBI's Disclaimer and Copyright before using PubMed.
