Querying for Gene Lists Browsing genes is nice but you can do more To make the data more useful, EPConDB provides the ability to work with gene lists using queriesandquery history. These tools provide you the ability to generate lists of genes matching your criteria to identify candidate genes for your research.
Create a Gene List Which human genes have promoters bound by HNF1alpha in the islet and have a predicted HNF1alpha site in their promoter? Genes with promoters bound by HNF1alpha in the islet EPConDB does not have this query … but … it does have two simpler queries we can combine. Genes with predicted HNF1alpha sites in promoter
Gene List #1 Which human genes have promoters bound by HNF1alpha in the islet? Go to the Query Transcripts Page via Navbar. Click on the Query TF Target Genes identified by genome-wide location analysis (ChIP-Chip) Choose a TF from the list, ‘Binding Sites for HNF1alpha’ Adjust fold-change and p-value if desired Click Submit
Gene List #2 Which human genes have a predicted HNF1alpha site in their promoter? • Go to the Query Transcripts Page using the Navbar. • Click on the Predicted Transcription Factor Target Genes query. • Select HNF1 (Tcf1) and human genome from the menus • Click Submit • TFBS predicted on conserved regions of promoter in both Hs and Mm. • See methods page to see details and logos of TFBS PWM motifs. • Connected DTs to all TFBS within 1KB of start site.
Intersect Gene Lists with History Page Click on the ‘My transcripts’ button to go to the history page. Check boxes With the query history page you can create unions, intersections, and subtract gene lists from each other. You can also delete unwanted gene lists.

Summary for this part of the talk • We have covered: • What data EPConDB contains. • How to browse info for individual genes. • How to browse lists of differentially expressed genes. • Gene list queries. How to combine lists to create gene lists that meet your criteria, e.g, genes with promoters bound by HNF1alpha in islet • Visit us at our poster
Future EPConDB Site Plans • New web site design in progress • User input will guide development of new site to make site easier to use and navigate • Let us know what you think at poster, please use meeting as opportunity to talk with us • What web site features/views should be maintained? • Sharing logins, BCBC web site and EPConDB

Planned Functional Genomics Study Pages on betacell.org Abstract from Hardy et al. Mol. Endocrinol. 2006: Recent advances in functional genomics afford the opportunity to interrogate the expression profiles of thousands of genes simultaneously and examine the function ofthese genes in a high throughput manner. In this study, we describe a rational and efficient approach to identifying novel regulators of insulin secretion by the pancreatic beta cell. Computational analysis of expression profiles of several mouse and cellular modelsof impaired insulin secretion identified 373 candidate genes involved in regulation of insulin secretion. Using RNA interference, we assessed the requirements of ten of these candidates and identified four genes (40%) as being essential for normal insulinsecretion. Among the genes identified was short-chain L-3-hydroxyacyl-CoAdehydrogenase (Hadhsc), which encodes SCHAD, an enzyme of mitochondrial oxidation of fatty acids whose mutation results in congenital hyperinsulinism. RNAi mediated gene suppression of Hadhsc in insulinoma cells and primary rodent islets revealed enhanced basal but normal glucose stimulated insulin secretion. This increase in basal insulin secretion was not attenuated by opening of the KATP channel with diazoxide,suggesting that SCHAD regulates insulin secretion through a KATP channel independent mechanism. Our results suggest a molecular explanation for the hyperinsulinemiahypoglycemic seen in patients with SCHAD deficiency. • Proposed to contain key information from • information already existing in EPConDB and • supplemented with manual annotations (e.g., goal, experimental paradigms, genes of interest, take home message) • Title, authors, date, etc… • Summary, with biological relevance • Lists of up/down-regulated genes • Downloads of raw/analysis data • Links to more detail at EPConDB/RAD/PAGE • We ask for your feedback.

EPConDB Data Submission Step 1: The Sample Submission form provides basic information about your experiment. You fill this out. (4 sections) Step 2: We complete the form and send it back to you for review.
Also, review the automatically generated graph of your experiment. (You may be asked to answer some final questions or provide missing details at this step.) Step 3: Upload your data files (.gpr, .cel, .txt) onto our secure ftp site. Step 4: (Optional): Login and view your finalized experiment prior to an EPConDB release (this requires a temporary password).
