I would like to known if the portal allows to answer a question. Given a specific gene, would the knock-out/knock-down of this gene produce the same effect of treatment with any tested compound? I see that the reverse is possible, when to search for a compound you can see the “Top Correlated Expression” genes. But, would removing a gene be phenocopied (viability) by treatment with any compound?
Today, the portal does not contain correlations between compound effects and gene knockdown effects. However, we have been working on adding computing correlations between any features of any two datasets which should allow you to answer this question. I’m not exactly sure when this will be released, but I believe we’re getting close.
I’d recommend checking the announcements on the portal next month. When this functionality is released, we’ll mention it as an announcement there.
Ok, thanks. I’ll check the announcements.
