CircadiOmics: bioinformatics platform for circadian rhythms.
CircadiOmics is the largest comprehensive bioinformatics platform with 704 circadian omic datasets across 18 species, enabling advanced analysis of molecular rhythms.
- Why it matters: Understanding circadian rhythms at the molecular level is vital for health and medicine, as disruptions are linked to diseases and many drug targets show circadian oscillations, yet existing tools are limited.
- What they did: The platform integrates transcriptomic, metabolomic, proteomic, and acetylomic data, providing tools for comparing, visualizing, and analyzing circadian oscillations, including periodicity metrics like period, amplitude, and phase.
- The result: CircadiOmics offers an extensive, freely accessible resource that enhances the exploration of circadian biology, supporting research and precision medicine through interactive visualizations and downloadable data.
