IM Browser Manual

Add intersection/union of the tables.

IM Browser query forms provide two radio buttons: "Union" and "Intersection". With the selected “Union” button the interactions that are found in at least one of the selected tables will be added to the graph. With the selected “Intersection” button, only interactions that are common to the selected tables will be added to the graph.

Example: Build a graph of interactions common in tables "Genetic interactions" and "Finley YTH".

From the main menu select 'Edit'->'Add Gene/Protein'.

1. Select radio button “Intersection”.

2. Select tables "Genetic Interactions" and "Finley YTH".

Click “OK”.


Example: Build a graph with all the interactions from table "Finley YTH".

From the main menu select 'Edit'->'Add Gene/Protein'.

1. Type "*" in the grey text area.

2. Select table "Finley YTH".

Click “OK”.

Tables in our database contain thousands of interactions. It might take some time to receive all the interactions from the database and layout the graph (currently the process of laying out a graph is slow). Before adding all the interaction, you might want to check the total number of the interactions in the table.
