The GeneSpring GX – MetaCore connector scripts will allow you to integrate GeneSpring GX version 7.3, and later, with the MetaCore pathway analysis tool. The integration consists of two scripts for GeneSpring GX that will allow you to send gene lists with experimental data for analysis in MetaCore
- Update 28-June-2006
The scripts have been updated on June 28th 2006 to implement the following changes: The normalized values in GeneSpring GX are now converted to normalized ratio values that MetaCore expects (centered around 0, rather than 1) The limit for the maximum number of genes has been raised from 500 to 1,000,000. NOTE 1: The scripts will only work on GeneSpring GX version 7.3 and later. To update to version 7.3 go to the GeneSpring GX download page.
