Analysing data

In addition to being a reliable database of cellular pathways, Reactome provides several tools to analyse user data against curated information. The various tools are listed below:

  • Pathway enrichment analysis
  • Gene set enrichment analysis
  • Molecular interaction overlay
  • Expression overlay
  • Disease overlay
  • Species projection
  • Tissue projection
  • Functional interaction analysis

Explaining each of these tools is beyond the scope of this tutorial and will not be covered here. Check out Reactome: Tools for analysis of biological pathways course for more details.
