Abstract

We have developed an application, iVici, to analyze cellular networks represented as addressable symmetric or asymmetric two-dimensional matrices. iVici was designed to permit simultaneous visualization and correlation of multiple datasets, representing any relationship between a set of genes, mRNAs, or proteins. Visual overlay of datasets and addressable access to gene annotations permits comparison of networks of different types (for example protein-protein interactions and genetic networks) or investigation of the dynamic reorganization of a particular network.
