GEISHA
GEISHA lets visitors search gene expression records by anatomy, developmental stage, gene, specimen, and related parameters.
About GEISHA
GEISHA is an online repository of in situ hybridization images and corresponding metadata for genes expressed in the chicken embryo during the first six days of development. It is a public resource funded by the National Institutes of Health, USA, and hosted by the University of Arizona.
Visitors can browse by embryo stage, anatomical location, gene name or ID, and citation keyword, or use QuickSearch with additional fields such as Gene ID and Gene Ontology keywords. It also provides Gene Family QuickSearch, links to ZEBrA zebra finch brain images, and a human disease gene search.
Key features
- Browse expression records by embryo stage and anatomical location
- Search by gene name, GEISHA ID, Gene ID, or citation keyword
- Filter by multiple parameters including Gene Ontology keywords
