Software Tool Plans

  • Architectural restructuring: creation of a central database that will serve all users through a web-based interface.
  • Algorithmic support for network analysis: finding the shortest path between designated proteins, identification of pathway "hotspots" according to gene expression data, etc.
  • Further population of the database through mass importation of pathway data from public sources.
  • Automatic hierarchical layout of pathways.
  • Full support of regulatory variation according to tissue type.
  • Multi-species support.
  • New Planned Maps

  • DNA damage response and chromatin modifications.
  • Histone H3 modifications.
  • A large programmed cell death map.


  • Suggestions for new features and improvements are always welcome! Please send them to email spike@post.tau.ac.il
