Glossary of Tribe terms
- Geneset/Collection
- We use the terms Geneset and Collection interchangeably. A
geneset/collection is a group of genes that are connected (optionally
through publications) to user defined processes and pathways.
- Tags
- Tags are keywords associated with genesets/collections that can be
added by users. Users can then filter genesets to only retrieve the
ones that have a certain tag (i.e. ‘adipose tissue’).
- Version
- Genesets/Collections are version-controlled in Tribe, meaning that
users can update them as many times as they want (changing the
contained genes/publications), and Tribe will keep a history of all of
the versions a user saves. This allows for reproducible science, as
users can go back and run an analysis using any previous saved version
of their geneset/collection.
