About

tspex is a tool that allows easy computation of a variety of tissue-specificity metrics from gene expression data.

Use tspex online

Upload an expression matrix file (example), select a tissue-specificity metric and choose whether the expression values should be log-transformed. After submitting your data, you will be redirected to a page where you can view and download your results as soon as they are ready.

Files containing comma-separated or tab-separated values must have the .csv or the .tsv extensions, respectively. For Excel files, both .xls and .xlsx extensions are allowed.
