Filename Information

The exploRase data files are named according to the exploRase filename convention (EFC). The names of the files tell exploRase the type of data they contain, so that exploRase knows how to load them automatically. The table below describes the EFC:

type	data extension	file extension	example
transcriptomic data	gene	data	mittler.gene.data
proteomic data	prot	data	some-proteins.prot.data
metabolomic data	met	data	suh-yeon.met.data
gene information	gene	info	affy25k.gene.info
protein information	prot	info	some-proteins.prot.info
metabolite information	met	info	suh-yeons-metabolites.met.info
interesting entities		list	my-favorite-pathway.list
experimental design		design	mittler.design
