4 months ago Hi @XimenaMaVa it sounds like your gene sets are not formatted correctly. Can you share these gene sets with me? You can send the gene sets via e-mail to avi.maayan@mssm.edu.

4 months ago Hi Ximena,
You need to remove the numbers before the gene names in the "die_down.txt" file. Your background is formatted correctly but looks weird because it has over 100,000 gene names. Typically, backgrounds should have much less genes.
Best,
Avi

4 months ago Thank you so much! Do I have to delete it from the text file? I had deleted it from excel and from there I copied and pasted it in Enrichr. Sorry for all the questions it is my first time doing this 😞 And also thanks for the information about the background!

4 months ago Yes. The text file should just have the gene name in each row without the number column.
I’ve been trying to upload my background file copying and pasting from different formats (csv, txt) and it always shows that error☹ I also tried in 2 different browsers (Chrome and Firefox).
About the genes, when I copy and paste them whitout background, this results are shown I thought it was my internet conection but the last one does have lists; so my question is: is it normal that the results are shown like this?
