INFO GRAB: An interactive shiny application for gene expression analysis and visualization

INFO GRAB is an interactive Shiny application designed for efficient exploration and visualization of gene expression data from chicken tissues and cell types. It integrates differential expression, tissue-specific expression, and allele-specific expression functionalities, supported by advanced plotting features, such as volcano plots, heatmaps, PCA, and correlation, as well as an embedded genome viewer. By leveraging DESeq2, Tau-based metrics, and curated multi-omic data, INFO GRAB provides a streamlined, user-friendly approach to large-scale transcriptomic analyses. This tool empowers researchers to investigate regulatory mechanisms and complex genetic traits, advancing poultry genomics and related biological research.
