TL;DR: Enrichr as discussed by the authors is a gene set search engine that enables the querying of hundreds of thousands of annotated gene sets Enrichr uniquely integrates knowledge from many high-profile projects to provide synthesized information about mammalian genes and gene sets.

TL;DR: The ChEA3 background database contains a collection of gene set libraries generated from multiple sources including TF–gene co-expression from RNA-seq studies, TF–target associations from ChIP-seq experiments, and TF-gree co-occurrence computed from crowd-submitted gene lists, which illuminate general transcription factor properties such as whether the TF behaves as an activator or a repressor.

TL;DR: Geneshot is a search engine developed to illuminate this gap and to promote attention to the under-studied genome through a simple web interface that enables researchers to enter arbitrary search terms and to receive ranked lists of genes relevant to the search terms.

TL;DR: The modEnrichr suite of tools as discussed by the authors provides the ability to convert gene lists across species using an ortholog conversion tool that automatically detects the species and provides API access that enables submitting batch queries.

TL;DR: Appyters as mentioned in this paper enables the rapid development of interactive web-based bioinformatics applications by allowing users to upload their data and set various parameters for a multitude of data analysis workflows.
