Abstract:
The BridgeDb app for Cytoscape allows users to map and annotate identifiers of genes, proteins and metabolites in the context of biological networks. The app greatly simplifies the identifier mapping process in Cytoscape by providing a unified interface to different mapping resources and services. The app also provides a programming interface via Cytoscape Commands that can be utilized for identifier mapping by other Cytoscape apps. In this article we provide a technical guide to the BridgeDb app for mapping identifiers in Cytoscape.
