Welcome to LncSEA a comprehensive human lncRNA sets resource and enrichment analysis platform.
- Introduction
- LncSEA supports more than 40,000 reference lncRNA sets involved in 18 categories (miRNA , drug , disease , methylation pattern, cancer specific phenotype, lncRNA binding protein, cancer hallmark, subcellular localization, survival, lncRNA-eQTL, cell marker, enhancer, super-enhancer, transcription factor, accessible chromatin, smORF, exosome and conservation) and 66 sub-categories, which covered over 50,000 lncRNAs. We not only collected lncRNA sets based on downstream regulatory data sources but also calculated a large number of lncRNA sets regulated by upstream transcription factors (TFs) and DNA regulatory elements by integrating TF ChIP-seq, DNase-seq, ATAC-seq and H3K27ac ChIP-seq data associated with hundreds of human cell types. Importantly, LncSEA provides annotation and enrichment analysis functions of lncRNA sets associated with upstream regulators and downstream targets. In addition, LncSEA provides a user-friendly interface to search, browse and visualize detailed information about these lncRNA sets. In summary, LncSEA is a powerful platform that provides a variety of types of lncRNA sets for users and supports lncRNA annotation and enrichment analysis functions.
