This guide will take approximately 5 minutes to complete.
In this guide you will learn how to perform an Enrichment analysis in Causaly biograph API.
What an Enrichment Analysis is?
Enrichment Analysis is a way to interpret a list of genes, proteins and/or targets derived from the experimental data, such as from omics data. This type of Additional Analysis helps to understand if the list is enriched with targets that may correspond to a particular disease, molecular pathway, physiologic function etc.
What are the current options in Causaly cloud?
You can either use Causaly Discover to search for the targets one by one or the Delta Analysis in the Advanced search module where you can look for up to 10 targets at time. You can find more information on how to utilize these features in the Causaly Discover Guide and the Delta analysis guide, respectively.
What if you need to analyze more than 10 concepts of interest?
In order to perform an Enrichment Analysis for 10+ concepts, you should use the API.
To review the process on how you can perform such a search, please watch the video below:
