Database descriptionDatabase descirption Bgee is a database for retrieval and comparison of gene expression patterns across multiple animal species. It provides an intuitive answer to the question "where is a gene expressed?" and supports research in cancer and agriculture as well as evolutionary biology. Bgee data are produced from multiple data types (bulk and single-cell RNA-Seq, Affymetrix, in situ hybridization, EST data), and multiple data sets, that are all integrated consistently to provide a single answer to the question: "where is this gene expressed?" Bgee is based exclusively on curated "normal", healthy wild-type expression data (e.g., no gene knock-out, no treatment, no disease), to provide a comparable reference of normal gene expression. Bgee produces calls of presence/absence of expression, and of differential over-/under-expression, integrated along with information of gene orthology, and of homology between organs. This allows comparisons of expression patterns between species.
