OVERVIEW

Any set that is saved to the [Sets] folder in the platform can be further filtered to create a subset. If the set is comprised of genes, you can filter based on characteristics of the genes and literature references.

STEPS

Note	A user action, such as click or enter, is italicized. A visible item on the platform, such as a [link] or a [button], is in square brackets. A link to another article or external source is underlined.

1. Find the set you want to filter in the [Sets] folder. Headers located above the list of sets allows you to sort and filter based on the title of the set or the tags associated with the set.

2. Click the [funnel] icon to filter the set. A pop-up window with available filters will appear.

Note	There are other actionable icons located to the far right of each set. Hover over each icon to find out what each icon does.

a. If all the concepts in the set are genes, then the following pop-up window appears for you to filter based on the characteristics of genes:

filter_genes_in_Sets

Filter option	If selected, then only include
Taxonomy	genes in the selected taxonomy class
Gene classification	genes in the selected gene class*
Gene location	genes with the selected subcellular location*
Tissue expression	genes with the specified expression level in selected tissue*
Gene cell type expression	genes with the specified expression level in selected cell type*
Chemical antagonist	genes with gene products that contain a chemical antagonist with the specified maximum IC50
Chemical agonist	genes with gene products that contain a chemical agonist with the specified maximum IC50
Tool compounds	genes that have tool compounds
Known drug targets	genes that are known drug targets

*Multi-selection is allowed.

b. If the concepts in the selected set are not genes, then the following pop-up window will appear for you to filter based on the number of publication and databases references:

Filter_non-genes_in_Sets

3. Click the [Apply] button to apply the selected filter(s). One or more filters can be selected at at a time.

Note	Clicking the [Reset] button will clear the selection.

4. The list of concepts shown on the right is generated based on the applied filter(s). The number of results refers to the number of concepts in the set based on the applied filter(s).

Note	The applied filter options are automatically added to the [Set Description] field.

5. Click the [Save] button to save the set. The saved gene set can be found in [Sets] folder.

Note	Change the [Set name] to be more specific. Add a tag to the set to easily locate it at a later point.
