GNomEx is a free open-source genomics LIMS and analysis project center for organizing, annotating, tracking, and distributing raw genomic data and associated downstream analysis. It contains a genomics LIMS, an analysis project center, and programmatic data distribution server. It is designed for institutional core facilities and large research laboratories.[2]
Product history
GNomEx was developed by several researchers at the Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City, Utah. It was created to[2]:
- track samples for experimentation in Huntsman's microarray and next generation sequencing core facility
- associate raw data with biological samples
- link downstream computational analysis with generated data
On March 19, 2010, the researchers released the first public, open-source version of GNomEx on SourceForge as version 4.6.[1] Since then, work on the software has been steady, with a 5.0.0 release on October 25, 2010; a 5.1.2 release on April 13, 2011; and a 5.3 release on September 27.[3]
Features
Some of the features of GNomEx include[4]
- a LIMS for making and tracking requests for genomic analysis
- ability to import externally generated genomic datasets in their native formats
- ability to enter and associate structured meta-data using MAGE ontologies for the samples and experimental parameters with the data
- Web tools to browse, search, modify, and download data files associated with datasets and meta-data
Hardware/software requirements
Installation requirements and instructions can be found in the SourceForge README file.
Videos, screenshots, and other media
Screenshots of GNomEx can be found at Softpedia.
