BioGPS（http：//www.example.com）是一个集中的基因注释门户网站，使研究人员能够访问分布式基因注释资源。本文重点介绍自我们上一篇论文（2013年数据库问题）以来BioGPS的更新。与其他基因门户网站相比，BioGPS的独特之处在于其社区可扩展性和用户可定制性。用户贡献可从BioGPS（“插件”）访问的基因特异性资源，这有助于确保资源收集始终是最新的，并将随着时间的推移继续扩展（自2013年论文以来，已添加了162个资源，可用资源数量增加了34%）。BioGPS用户可以创建自己的相关插件集合，并将其保存为定制的基因报告页面或“布局”（自2013年论文以来，已添加了488个用户创建的布局，布局数量增加了22%）。此外，我们最近更新了最受欢迎的插件“基因表达/活性图表”，以包括2000个数据集（来自2000个数据集），我们增强了用户交互性。我们还增加了一个新的“基因列表”功能，允许用户保存查询结果以供将来参考。
BioGPS (http://biogps.org) is a centralized gene-annotation portal that enables researchers to access distributed gene annotation resources. This article focuses on the updates to BioGPS since our last paper (2013 database issue). The unique features of BioGPS, compared to those of other gene portals, are its community extensibility and user customizability. Users contribute the gene-specific resources accessible from BioGPS (‘plugins’), which helps ensure that the resource collection is always up-to-date and that it will continue expanding over time (since the 2013 paper, 162 resources have been added, for a 34% increase in the number of resources available). BioGPS users can create their own collections of relevant plugins and save them as customized gene-report pages or ‘layouts’ (since the 2013 paper, 488 user-created layouts have been added, for a 22% increase in the number of layouts). In addition, we recently updated the most popular plugin, the ‘Gene expression/activity chart’, to include ∼6000 datasets (from ∼2000 datasets) and we enhanced user interactivity. We also added a new ‘gene list’ feature that allows users to save query results for future reference.
