[Gofriends] GO tool for semantic similarity

[Andreas Gisel]

Hi

There is a tool collection GOToolBox 
(http://burgundy.cmmt.ubc.ca/GOToolBox/) which has a tool called 
GO-Family which provides a search for functional similar genes according 
to GO annotations.

Also we have developde a functional gene analogue finder and right now 
we are setting up web site (http://spank.ba.itb.cnr.it/engine/) to 
provide access to the precalculated data using GO annotations. See also 
  Tulipano et al. 2007 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17767718)

Best regards
