Probe Search #3

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Feature request:

A long time ago we used to have fairly simple, but useful probe search. It
would be nice to re activate this search functionality and integrate it
into the environment - biologists generally know some probes that they are
interested in, this would enable the to access known genes easily.

Suggest it should be a direct DB query: SELECT * FROM xmas.PROBES WHERE
PROBE_ID LIKE '%SEARCHTERM%' ORDER BY PROBE_ID;

Here I would like again an explanation about what probes are and where in the 
system
it should be available. We can talk about it during our skype meeting.

Probes and genes are pretty much synonymous for our purposes - a gene might be
represented by multiple probes (each uniquely identifiable) on a single 
microarray chip.

I can't really think of a case where we deal with Genes instead of probes within
XMAS. Genes are never mentioned in the code so let's just stick with "probes".
