ABSTRACT
SUMMARY: KNIT is a web application that provides a hierarchical, directed graph on how a set of genes is connected to a particular gene of interest. Its primary aim is to aid researchers in discerning direct from indirect effects that a gene might have on the expression of other genes and molecular pathways, a very common problem in omics analysis. As such, KNIT provides deep contextual information for experiments where gene or protein expression might be changed, such as gene knock-out and overexpression experiments. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: KNIT is publicly available at http://knit.ims.bio. It is implemented with Django and Nuxtjs, with all major browsers supported. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
