Yuxing’s paper WebGestalt 2019: gene set analysis toolkit with revamped UIs and APIs has been published in Nucleic Acids Research. There are five major changes in this new version: 1) We have completely redesigned result visualizations and user interfaces to improve user-friendliness and to provide multiple types of interactive and publication-ready figures. 2) To address the growing and unique need for phosphoproteomics data interpretation, we have implemented phosphosite set analysis to identify important kinases from phosphoproteomics data. 3) To facilitate comprehension of the enrichment results, we have implemented two methods to reduce redundancy between enriched gene sets. 4) We introduced a web API for other applications to get data programmatically from the WebGestalt server or pass data to WebGestalt for analysis. 5) We wrapped the core computation into an R package called WebGestaltR for users to perform analysis locally or in third party workflows.
