 Abstract: Complex biological systems comprise a large number of interacting molecules. The identification and detailed characterization of the functions of the involved genes and proteins are crucial for modeling and understanding such systems. To interrogate the various cellular processes, high-throughput techniques such as the Affymetrix Exon Array or RNA interference (RNAi) screens are powerful experimental approaches for functional genomics. However, they typically yield long gene lists that require computational methods to further analyze and functionally annotate the experimental results and to gain more insight into important molecular interactions. Here, we focus on bioinformatics software tools for the functional interpretation of exon expression data to discover alternative splicing events and their impact on gene and protein architecture, molecular networks, and pathways. We additionally demonstrate how to explore large lists of candidate genes as they also result from RNAi screens. In particular, our exemplary application studies show how to analyze the function of human genes that play a major role in human stem cells or viral infections.
