Serotonin Signaling Gene Analysis for Fasciola Hepatica

Figshare hosts a bioinformatic analysis defining serotonin signaling genes in the parasite Fasciola hepatica. The dataset contains gene IDs generated from interrogation of the F. hepatica genome annotation PRJEB58756, with analysis results from reciprocal BLAST, Interproscan, and transcript per million (TPM) data. Author Emily Robb published this 16.0 KB XLSX file in 2026.

Use Cases

• Identify candidate serotonin signaling genes in F. hepatica using the provided gene IDs for functional genomic studies.
• Cross-reference gene IDs with reciprocal BLAST results against NCBI nr and Uniprot databases for homology validation.
• Analyze gene expression patterns using the included transcript per million (TPM) data for serotonin-related pathways.
• Filter gene lists based on Interproscan domain analysis results to characterize protein functional domains.

Strengths

• Analysis is derived from the authoritative F. hepatica genome annotation PRJEB58756 (WormBase ParaSite version 19).
• Dataset integrates results from multiple bioinformatic methods: reciprocal BLAST, Interproscan, and TPM data.
• File is a compact 16.0 KB XLSX, facilitating quick inspection and analysis.

Limitations

• The dataset is very small at 16.0 KB, indicating limited scope and likely a focused gene list rather than a genome-scale resource.
• Specific row count, column names, and sample data are unavailable, limiting pre-download assessment of structure.
• Data is synthetic output from computational analysis, not direct experimental measurements, and may contain annotation biases.
