We are working on a plan to improve iDEP. Any new functionality or feature you like to be added? Please
send us
your suggestions!
New! V0.85 now uses updated annotation databases based on 148 genomes in Ensembl release 95,
58 species from Ensembl Plants release 42, and 72 species in Ensembl Metazoa release 42.
v0.82 fixed a major bug. When using limma, the up- and down-regulation is reversed in some situations.
New v0.68! Try the STRING-db API access on the DEG2 page that offer
protein interaction networks and GO enrichment for thousands species, including bacteria.
Enriched TF binding motifs in promoters of Kmeans clusters
Determining the number of clusters (k)
Following the elbow method, one should choose k so that adding another cluster
does not substantially reduce the within groups sum of squares.

t-SNE plot of genes
We use the dimension reduction algorith
t-SNE
to map the top genes. Examine the distribution can help choose the nubmer of clusters in k-Means.
Enrichment and network visualization using STRING API
iDEP tries to match your species with the 115 archaeal,
1678 bacterial, and 238 eukaryotic species in the
STRING server
and send the DEGs. If it is running, please wait until it finishes. This can take 5 minutes
especially for the first time when iDEP downloads large annotation files.
Analyze top DEGs on protein interaction networks (PPIs)
By sending top DEGs (ranked by fold-change) to the STRING website,
iDEP is retrieving a sub-network, calculating PPI enrichment,
and generating custom URLs to the STRING website containing your genes.
This can take 5 minutes. Patience will pay off!
Interactions among proteins encoded by top up-regulated proteins

To improve reproducibility, iDEP generates custom R code
based on your data and choices of parameters. Users with some
R coding experience should be able to re-run most analyses
by downloading all of the files below. If Ensembl IDs is not used in users' original file,
we should use the converted data file. Click through all the tabs and then download all
these file to a folder. Run the Customized R code or the Markdown file.

Usage Statistics
As of Feb. 8, 2019, iDEP website has been visited 16,344 times by 4,500 users from 80 countries.
Fully functional only in early 2018, iDEP has been used by researchers to analyze transcriptomic data
from sun flowers to primates to human,
as demonstrated by 12 papers citing iDEP.
