Remus is a Web application that facilitates identification of regulatory regions potentially associated with the expression of input genes. Starting from a small set of input genes implicated in pathogenesis of a disease, Remus allows creating a list of regulatory features active in a set of tissues of interest. Customizable search and step-by-step process allows […]
