How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

g:Profiler: a web server for functional enrichment analysis and conversions of gene lists (2019 update) (2019, background): “The Gene Ontology is the most comprehensive resource in g:GOSt covering 467 species and strains represented in Ensembl Genomes and fungi, plants or metazoa specific versions of Ensembl (17), and parasite specific data from WormBase (18).”
UniProt: the Universal Protein Knowledgebase in 2025 (2024, neutral): “Imports from En-sembl, RefSeq and other genome annotation platforms such as WormBase ParaSite ( 7 ) are still largely manually screened as import candidates.”
The EMBL-EBI Job Dispatcher sequence analysis tools framework in 2024 (2024, methodology): “Sequence dataset updates and releases are routinely deployed for datasets such as UniProt, PDBe ( 19 ), Ensembl Genomes, WormBase Parasite ( 20 ), and ENA.”
UniProt: a worldwide hub of protein knowledge (2018, methodology): “To ensure comprehensiveness, complementary pipelines have been developed to supplement these with genomes sequenced and / or annotated by groups such as Ensembl (3), Vectorbase (4) and WormBase ParaSite (5).”
Ensembl 2021 (2020, methodology): “Our software, database and tools infrastructure is freely available and is used to power the nonvertebrate genome resources provided by the cladespecific Ensembl Genomes websites (10), collaborating resources such as WormBase (11), and community-oriented databases focused on branches of the taxonomy”
